I am using CloudfFare with full (strict) SSL and my site mostly worked. Until I 
tried to add or update a page or post within the Gutenberg editor, it always failed.
After some research I read it can be caused by SSL issues and to try an SSL plugin.
The first one I tried did nothing. then I saw this one mentioned CloudFlare which
I use. Put in my mu-plugins folder and now Gutenberg works!

I was having problems in my WP-MultiSite with CloudFlare blocking JetPack access
and not being able to deactivate the “SSL Insecure Content Fixer” plugin without
getting a “too many redirects” error, and installing and activating this plugin 
solved both them.
