Overall conclusion:
Ryanair is a friendly ultra-low cost airline, however, I'd personally avoid them on flights longer than 2-3 hours. Regardless, they have made significant improvements within the last 5-10 years by expanding their route network, taking delivery of new aircraft with enhanced legroom and quieter cabins, namely the Boeing 737 MAX family which burns less fuel than the NG family. One of the improvements I highly appreciate is the fact that they have relocated from Skavsta to Arlanda Airport which is closer to the city of Stockholm, generally more convenient and easier to access for passengers. Ryanair has done an excellent job by opening up several new routes and bases from larger and busier airports to attract more customers and opening up many new opportunities. Will definitely fly with Ryanair again in the future, but only short-haul.
