Do you think Robinhood is worth using for investing?

Looks like they had a history of controversies. The January 2021 GameStop Short Squeeze for example was a big one. The March 2021 outages and recently the restriction of trading Dogecoin. Should I trust Robinhood or should I try something else

    I traded, bough and sell in Robinhood before, I have thousands of money in there, and they don’t charge me $1. It’s easier and cheaper then traditional  stock trading platforms

    Stay away from Robinhood. They may well not be around for much longer anyway.

    If anyplace raises questions of the questionable kind, you should say hell no to temptation and use something reputable.

    Robinhood is for little kids who want to be cool, say they are "investing", have no idea what they are doing and think free trades are free.

    Robinhood has employees.  The employees need to be paid.  If they don't have any revenue, then there is no money to pay employees.

    Why would you use a site that crashes all the time? Other than the cool name, you want a trading platform that you can buy and sell your stock right away
