Nice & simple, missing caption.

Nice and simple, worked for me straight out of the box. The only thing I'm missing (compared to Jetpack's Image Compare block) is having a caption.

I love this plugin, it did exactly what I expected thank you so much.
i like it! But...
By wotography on February 13, 2024
...the plugin always shows a message on every page in the dashboard asking for consent to some data colelction. I dont want it and I apreciate that you probably dont just take it anyway. But I dont't like that I can't say no. I can skip the message and in the next milisecond it will eppear right away again. ... maybe consider fixing this. its annoying!
I will definitly change this review once its fixed!
Simple and easy

Basic block settings, that just work.
I tried another plugin first that had way more options, but lagged very badly on iPhone.
After adding this block (into columns) I can't select it again to edit by clicking on it directly, just via the block list. Clicking it directly just moves the split bar. That should be fixed.
