Fund Selection

when I’m looking to add a fund to my portfolio but it became too lengthy to be

Jarvis / x-o moved share dealing over to the Interactive Investor platform, who are fee free until Jan 2026, but then charge a monthly fee. Does anyone know of any other portfolio sites like x-o which didn't charge a subsciption fee and were on fee charging on trades?
