I know its hard to believe, but the entire customer base (23.3M) of Robinhood is a testament to how good their product is in spite of the misgivings of the brokerage during the "GME". If it makes it feel better, their MAU is down 16% year-over-year to 10.3 million.

I am also a user and I love it - and while I don't trade crypto, but they offer the lowest commission in crypto. And my uninvested cash gets a decent interest (5%), and my trades execute reasonably well. It maybe not for a professional trader, but my own experience has been fantastic for what it offers.

Also incredibly thankful that there is no trading fees across many of the brokers now, which I believe was forced by Robinhood. I know of the PFOF controversy, and regardless I hold this view.

I also know I can't change your view, but hope you have a great weekend ahead!
