  1. HI @IPv6 @fotojindra

    It has nothing to do with grouping.
    I think you made it way to complicated.
    You added  two separate masks filled with black (black seals, white reveals !!). So it's obvious almost everything is hidden.
    You added a levels adj  with a LAB colour format set to master component.
    If you select the lightness component and adjust the gamma  slider to taste, you can directly paint on the build in mask of the levels adjustment. If that is what you intended to do ?

    See attachment ...

    All layers I can create are given a solid color - white by default, but I can chose other colors, EXCEPT when I select 'none' after right clicking on the layer in the layers tab, it stays white.

    That's because  Document > Transparent Background is unchecked !
    The white you see is the white of the canvas ... If you add a  New Layer, it's by default transparent.

    The title of your post was "SAVING FOR THE WEB" so to keep it simple:

    I think the Youtube video only makes it more complicated.

    For webdesign you just don't use DPI or ppi no matter if it says 300 DPI or 96 DPI an image of 500px X 500px = an image of 500px X 500px that's basically all you need to know. When you use your images for print then it makes sense. 

    Adobe used to teach people this in Adobe Classroom in a book and said that 96 DPI and 72 DPI is for the web, but this was nonsense!

    The only sensible thing in Photoshop save for web is the optimization image monitor that is missing in Affinity, that's why I use JPEGmini because that optimizes automatically . 

     

    Indeed ...

    Here's an interesting article that disrupts that myth ...

    Hoping that this can be reported to the devs for a fix in a future version.

    A click on the little arrow in front  that layer reveals a nested (image) layer.
    Image layers are a "special" layer type that retains all the original image data.
    But they cannot be edited/manipulated at a pixel level. 
    For that they must be rasterised first.
