I too would prefer to have "Wayfarer" as the default setting, and yes changes to settings are saved when you exit the Settings page AFAIK, from what I have found from my use of Wayfarer, but some websites will require a different User Agent (Spoof) than Wayfarer to function as it needs to. I suppose we have to accept that as fact, and be grateful we can still 'surf the web' in these current times, and hopefully for a little longer into the future thanks to those working on Wayfarer.
