I reproduced this on debug version with following Gutenberg crash. I'm changing the type of this issue to gutenberg-mobile. Do you think someone from the GB team could look into it @mkevins? Thanks!

Hi @planarvoid :wave:

I have also reproduced this, and I have confirmed it is related with the double-rotation crash. I have also confirmed that the approach used to address that crash (in this draft PR: https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/WordPress-Android/pull/10383) also fixes this issue.

Should be fixed now that https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/WordPress-Android/pull/10383 is merged.
