Any way to replace Yahoo Finance?

For those that dabble in stocks and other financial securities, how do you stay updated when out and about?
I already have spreadsheets and comprehensive RSS feeds that takes way too long to read each day. And yeah, my brokerage technically has portfolio tracking if I choose to login.
But…
* I don’t want to login to my Brokerage app on my phone for security and privacy reasons, especially not regularly. If I need to place an emergency trade, I’ll login on Brave or Vanadium in incognito mode and still delete the browser data afterwards.
* I want to see stock quotes, basic charts, near real time data, etc.
* I want an easy access watchlist
* I like to track the value of my portfolio (I put my shares data in manually so I can see a near real time breakdown of my gains and losses.
* I want to be notified of major stock market news or specific company major news so that I don’t need to compulsively keep checking just to confirm nothing monumental is happening. Things like fed decisions, unemployment data, inflation data, trade stuff, earnings reports for market and sector dominating companies, and major price swings.
I currently use the yahoo finance app with an alias email. It functions moderately ok for the above criteria. To get notifications to work, it needs play services.
I’ve been making huge strides at moving to FOSS alternatives, but I’m really struggling with this one.
