These are weird times. It depends what you want. I think for most people being able to buy GME yesterday is not an important factor in choosing a broker. If you just want to buy some stocks as an investment any modern broker is probably fine. I dont like RH because it gamifies something that should be serious but for most people it works great and low cost is very nice. For me I 'd rate brokers on 1) Security, 2) Cost 3) availability of products like foreign stocks 4) gui usability 5) reliability 6) tax statements 7) margin costs 8) other products like debit cards/crypto. This list should be different for different people.
