I auto reinvest in some accounts but not all. I do like the for the stocks that are more high dollar and it helps build up share counts. For some stocks that I want to keep the share count at the current amount I prefer the cash to use to buy other stocks.

Depends, Dripping CLM and ARR due to cheap share price currently, and Taking ET dist and PBR/A divy and reinvesting or bag watering as the situation presents itself.

I auto reinvest in my 401k and IRA's. I don't need the money now so why wouldn't I take free shares now while I'm still 25 years away from retirement?

When dividends are reinvested into the company the stock price rises to reflect that capital being replinished/reinvested back into the company.
This has no impact on your retirement.
I thought you were asking, "Should I just cash the dividends and live on the payments?" And the answer would depend on your situation.

I like dividends for when you are closer to retirement or in retirement because you aren’t selling off any stock. My version of dividend is SCHD and JEPI, etc.

You present an argument that I hadn't thought of. I will look more into it.
That said, I have my reinvest turned on for GameStop direct registered via ComputerShare. I think it will be very entertaining, if all 200,000 GameStop holder accounts at CS have this option turned on, and GameStop gives us a dividend.
Currently, we have a third of all GameStop shares directly registered. We have 60% of the Free Float. As the shares available to loan and short dry up, I want to see what happens.
