If you are planning on adding things, my humble suggestion would be how to write a really good bug report, maybe going through how to research what went wrong to narrow down the problem, looking for already filed bug reports, using diff and patch if you have a proposed solution, using reportbug, etc.
Ok good suggestion. I will knock something up.

I’m new-ish to Linux and new to Debian, but I literally just did a (second) Debian 12 install, so I have one note about your Firefox’s documentation, specifically about “chromium’s suggestion” when uninstalling Firefox. https://makedebianfunagainandlearnhowtodoothercoolstufftoo.computer/doku.php?id=start:firefoxesr
Besides Firefox ESR, it came bundled with “Konqueror”. Don’t know if it depends on your installation’s configuration, though. I selected to install “non-free” software, if it helps. So for me it didn’t complain when I uninstalled Firefox ESR, it just set Konqueror as the default web browser

Makes sense, thank you for the clarification.
It is also a file browser.
And apparently also supports FTP/SFTP, quite nifty.

Thank you for the guide. I decided to install my distro of choice on the first half of my laptop drive and threw Debian in the other half. I’ve been meaning to dig more into btrfs and this gave me a nice excuse.
Cool thanks :)
