It's simple, fast, and at least back when I used it, was reasonably consistent.
I'm all for information density, but using Schwab, Vanguard, whatever results in slow to load pages which refresh every time I click a button. Half the pages look completely different than the other half of the pages, I use ctrl-f to find any buttons to click, and sometimes pages just don't load because they don't feel like it.
Banking websites are horribly broken and outdated on a technical level, even if I don't consider the design aesthetic.
- exclusiv 5y agoSchwab executes my trades as they should and I don't have to worry about them lying about liquidity problems. Vlad was a complete disaster during the congressional testimonies. He got obliterated on his suggestion that they have suicide support (A rep called the support hotline and it went straight to voicemail). He said "I admit to always improving". Was extremely shady if there was no wrongdoing. Chamath said "I remember when I met the @RobinhoodApp founders when they were raising their Seed, Series A and Series B. I passed. Why? Optimize for integrity whenever possible because integrity compounds and assholes will fuck you." [1] I think we'll find out a lot more about Vlad and his operation in the near future. I do not wish them luck on their IPO. [1] https://twitter.com/chamath/status/1354947541125611526 https://twitter.com/chamath/status/1354947541125611526
