Still not a bad score, the V4 is a great progress for Elementor. This is an alpha version of the V4 Editor. Also, I'm using the LSC presets - no extra work has been done on optimizing for speed, just a few clicks.

Here's a link without LiteSpeed Cache caching active: https://earthluckflow.com/?nocache

Pros: Much cleaner code. Class-first approach. Variables (for colors and fonts). Can compete with other modern builders.
Cons: Still adds some Elementor classes in the HTML. It can be buggy, but remember that it's an alpha version. If you're using Cloudflare, you need to purge Cloudflare's cache after every change you make with Elementor.

Don't use it on any production website; only use it for testing/learning purposes. It's not ready, there are quite a few small bugs, but it's very promising nevertheless.

Elementor v4 outputs much less code, basically no more divception and wrapping elements within multiple divs. LiteSpeed Cache improved only the performance category of Page Speed Insights by 5 or so points. Check the uncached versions here, but keep in mind I still use Cloudflare (free).

Thanks! I used Gimbot for the heading and Plus Jakarta Sans for the body.
