I’ve been using integrated graphics card since I’ve gotten my computer. I didn’t knew how unsmooth we’re graphics 'till I got this Radeon card from 2013.

I played a bit with qutebrowser recently and I love it’s keyboard driven nature but it is based on QtWebEngine which is based on Chromium and I want something based on Firefox.
