Can you explain what specifically is manipulate about robinhood's ux? Maybe is me, but I don't find the ux of robinhood significantly different than the other brokerages I use (Fidelity and Merrill Edge).

This comes from someone who's of the opinion that manipulative dark UX patterns have been normalized - I have not used the competition you speak of, I wouldn't be surprised if they are similar.

The marketing push for options by calling it "instant trading" is pretty BS too.

I asked what specifically is manipulate about robinhood's ux, I am not really interested in an unrelated analysis of shopping websites.
