I think it was also the first I came into contact with. The quality inevitably varies, but very few of them bored me. I think I might be more likely to read books in a setting if I know that multiple authors have contributed to it, because that's more interesting to me - if I didnt like the last book, maybe I'll like the next one more.
Avoid Unseen Academicals, Raising Steam and Snuff - they're inevitably disappointing, due to the advancing Alzheimer's.

Better, in their opinion, that a tacky ballroom is being installed to stroke the ego of a child rapist and traitor to the nation.

And some extensions arent compatible with it, like YT Sponsor Block.Well, OperaGX had been pretty good for me so far. It takes a little getting used to the left-hand sidebar icons, though.
