There's been this common thought since 2015 that Rey using a mind trick without years and years of training makes her unfathomably and unfairly strong when the text of the movie shows that to be untrue. The only difference between Rey using a mind trick and Anakin using precognitive sight to podrace is that one of them did it consciously. Anakin gets a pass because he's 'the chosen one' but Rey doesn't get a pass because someone being strong in the Force shouldn't be able to use the Force once without training? Do people think Broom Kid is bullshit because he used the Force without training?

It's been a while since I've seen the prequals, but I don't remember it ever being explicitly said that Anakin used the force to podrace. 

I didn't really take issue with Rey being able to use the force without training, but she was able to reverse Kylo's mind control back on him, Someone who had been trained by two different masters of the force. That among other things, like being able to beat a trained storm trooper (Finn) or being able to fix the millennium falcon better than its owner can. Because she's a scavenger? I dunno fam. I mean sure, Ray gets to win fights because she's the protag and everything, but it was just all so easy for her. I can't think of a single good trilogy where the first act is a breeze for the protagonist.
