That browser is my main driver, but it's out of the box settings makes it a bad choice for regular users in my opinion. Although knowing the usual crowd on Lemmy a lot of power users lurk around here.

only tangentially related but, what’s the cutoff for power users y’reckon? like i still feel like i don’t know what i’m doing, but i also recently did a bunch of troubleshooting on a new distro install without outside help.

is there a difference between power users and stubborn people who are just willing to trial-and-error their problems away until they understand it? lmao
