Comment (by lonelyvegan):

 I'm no copy editor, so feel free to ping those people if you like too. But
 I don't think leading with a question is good and I think the copy, while
 upbeat, is a bit too verbose 😅

 I also think it should support/contextualise its position, so I propose
 something shorter and with references:

 "If you use screen readers, screen zoom utilities, or other assistive
 technology: the new WordPress editor experience (Gutenberg) may still have
 issues with your tools
 (https://make.wordpress.org/accessibility/2018/10/29/report-on-the-
 accessibility-status-of-gutenberg/). If you are experiencing issues using
 Gutenberg with your assistive technology, you can install the Classic
 Editor plugin while work on making the new editor more accessible. Thank
 you for your patience and support as we make the WordPress editor
 experience better for everyone!"

 (I can't make WikiFormatting links work because the Trac help doc isn't
 great and I never use WikiFormatting. 😅)
