   For what it's worth, I moved from Buster to Bookwrm on a
Pi4 recently. I really only use it for streaming movies. The
streaming services would no longer accept Firefox on Buster.
It maxed out at v. 92 if I remember correctly.

   I was pleasantly surprised. I couldn't tell you what's different.
It just runs quicker and feels more solid on the same hardware.
It's a pleasure to see an update require *less* resources. All I
care about is getting Netflix, Kanopy, PBS, etc in Firefox. Now
that's working better than ever.
