I guess I'm different. I typically want my router/firewall/network services box to Just Work. I've made a career in deep-in-the-weeds system administration and engineering. Having to hunt down man pages, examples, tutorials, etc for the dozen or so fiddly bits make up a modern Linux- (or BSD-) based router was fun the first time, not so much the 10th. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.
I will concede that the OpnSense UI is far from perfect. I would really like to see a device-centric view that lets me set all the things related to that device from one screen (or possibly one screen with multiple tabs). For example, if I add a Roku device to my network, I want to enter in the MAC address and then be taken to a screen where it will let me set the hostname, pick a static IP address, hand it a specific DNS resolver IP, see all of the traffic going to/from the device, only allow it access to the Internet between during certain hours, etc. All of this currently requires jumping around between multiple disconnected parts of the OpnSense UI.
