Glad I've finally migrated to firefox...

I agree for my personal usage, but I do think there's value in trying to make software easier to use for less technically minded users, while ideally still allowing the configurabilty and complexity for power users.

On average I've probably had to work with them or write one from scratch only a handful of times per year over my career. Not often enough to be an expert or anything but I'm not so afraid of them as I used to be.
