Advice or experience with OpenWrt? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have a TP-Link router and I want to try OpenWrt on it. Have other people tried this? How did it go? Is it difficult to revert if it doesn't work? I'm nervous because it's my main router.

I would like to think I’m a pretty smart guy, but you need to be intimately familiar with networking before you go down the OpenWRT rabbit hole. I decided to switch to UniFi equipment instead.
