Downvote the hell out of me, but as a relatively rookie, I have been using Robinhood for a year. During last months shite storm, I opened a E*Trade account. I don’t like it.

I opened accounts with several after the robinhood fiasco. I didn't mind them pausing trading on GME, I could give a shite on that but them freezing a bunch of stocks that I had been buying for a few months really pissed me off. I went to buy another 500 shares of ZOM at .80 and they had limited it that day and the next day it was back up over 1.25 and now 2.50. It cost me about 1 to 2k on that trade alone. I went to buy a bunch of Doge at .02 and they wouldn't release the money I put in a week ago to buy it, within a week it jumped to 7 cents and cost me another couple grand. After that I was done with them and their bullshite.

I already had fidelity accounts with my Roth and mutual funds so I went with them. I just didn't like the Webull layout or the TD Ameritrade layout. I figured I would just learn the Fidelity layout and be done with it. It is not nearly as user friendly but once you set up some watch lists and get some money flowing through it is fairly simple to move stuff around and buy when you want.
