Blockchain.info (now Blockchain.com) has been around for a while! I remember when it was one of the few go-to places for checking blockchain stats and using a simple web wallet. It's definitely evolved over the years. I'm curious, with all the new platforms available now, what features do people still find particularly valuable or unique about Blockchain.com?

To be frank, rather than the features, I think it's because their users are newbies who don't know anything better and/or perhaps they're just too complacent/lazy to move their funds out—the good ol' it's all good until you encounter a problem. Time has indeed passed and there are so much better platforms out there with a better customer support as well.

In my case, I've only ever used blockchain.com when I was a newbie-relatively new on the whole crypto thing.

And this is the path that all newbies apparently took when they got acquainted with bitcoin and blockchain technology. And this choice of not the best wallet was connected with the fact that the Blockchain.info devs managed to take domains with the then fashionable word "blockchain".
And accordingly, Google search always gave this service in the first search line.
If, for example, I had once tried to seriously understand the choice of a wallet, I would never have used blockchain.info. Too much time had to be spent later on solving all sorts of problems associated with this service.
I would not advise anyone to use this service.
