Chase vs Ally for savings accounts - Ally won by a mile for me

I kept my emergency fund in a Chase savings earning like 0.01% APY for years. Finally moved it over to Ally last year after seeing their rate at 4.25% and honestly the difference is insane. I'm pulling in about $85 a month in interest now on $25k parked there. Has anyone else made the switch and noticed how much faster your money grows with an online bank?

Ally pays like clockwork while Chase is basically pocket lint, I remember when CDs used to be the only game in town and now you can just park cash in a HYSA and watch it grow. Moved my own rainy day fund to an online bank last year and the first interest payment made me double check I hadn't made a mistake lol. Makes you wonder why anyone keeps serious savings at a brick and mortar joint unless they just like getting pennies back.

My buddy moved his savings to Ally and said he felt like a genius.
