This is most likely going to be the push I need to get me over to Playwright. I really like the Cypress API, particularly `cy.intercept`, compared to some of the Playwright equivalents. I'm sure that is just because I am used to Cypress now, and eventually I'll feel the same about Playwright.

Playwright is far far more nice to work with. Leveraging Chrome Developer Tools Protocol it gives you so much more power. Don't even think of comparing Cypress to Playwright. Playwright is the winner in the first minute of comparison

Playwright can also support tests with multiple windows/user sessions (great if you support collaborative editing). Additionally, you can run test that span multiple domain origins. Both of these are easy with Playwright, but not possible with Cypress.
