Just curious what you do use, I don't spend a lot of time using this product but when I did I struggled to find a good alternative.

As far as simple interfaces are concerned for the average layperson yahoo finance is as good as it gets since google literally gimped their finance product in such a stupid fashion since they didnt know how to monetize it. So not only did you have a competitor pick up marketshare, but also offer a premium sub feature that does not compete with their insanely good free public api. what a stupid company
MarketWatch has some of the features but Google Finance used to have almost everything. It was the easiest way to see financial ratios, previous year finances, and basic screening. There’s a few free stock screeners out there like finviz but they’re all less intuitive than Google was.
