KiCAD 6.0 Netclass board setup recommendations

I’m looking for some recommendation on KiCAD netclass board setup. What do you use for clearance, via size and track width?

I realize the most appropriate response to this questions depends on a number of factors. I’m hoping for a generalization from a individual that has some experience. I'm new to KiCAD and would like to generalized setup information.

Fritzing had six track widths to select from. I typically used the larger sizes for power and others for signal. With KiCAD 6.0 default is set but what are reasonable setting for others.

I have purchased PCB using Fritzing generated Gerber files without issue. I don’t reconfigure the default options provided by the PCB manufacture, I just use their defaults and upload my Gerbers. I know I need to learn some of the heavy lifting Fritzing does regarding setup. I'm hoping I can do this on KiCAD without having to dive into the deep end of knowledge.

Care to share you knowledge on the use cases for netclass board setup or a quick resource I can use to do some generalizations?
