Description
I have been getting this blank screen issue since last week, whenever trying to add a new post or pages it shows a blank page. Tried to clear the cache sometimes it works but most of the time it doesn't. Also tried to deactivate all the plugins still issue persists. So I think there is a possible bug in this new Gutenberg, which is not able to open posts sometimes. I have seen many people asking for the solution just like I am searching for, so I thought I should report here instead. Another thing is that I tried to install classic editor it worked fine, there was no issue on adding pages or posts or even editing old posts. The problem seems to be in Gutenberg only. Please look into this issue as me or there are so many people who are now used to the new editor that is Gutenberg.. I am not able to quite fit with the old classic editor.

Hi, this issue was resolved automatically after the recent WordPress update 5.6.2.
Now I am not getting any blank screen while trying to edit old posts/pages and adding new posts/pages.
Thank you for your reply.
Hi,
Thanks for reporting.
Could you share which theme you are using and if you have the same issue on other themes as well?
Secondly, if you could follow [Step 3 in this debugging guide]https://wordpress.org/support/article/using-your-browser-to-diagnose-javascript-errors/#step-3-diagnosis
and share what is in the browser console, that would be very helpful.
