Alternative to Coinbase to store ETH? (alien.top)

Currently storing ETH on coinbase because of how easy it is to stake, but I was wondering if there are any safer options out there to self custody and stake ETH

Metamask has been tried and tested. It's fully open-source, and has been in plain eyes for many years now. No need to re-invent the wheel. Make sure you download from the proper source, perhaps on a new computer or freshly formatted, and write down your seed phrase. You'll be good to go. Just keep it locked anytime you're exploring web3 apps, until you're 100% positive they are legitimate. There are so many phishing scams that target many ethereum dapps and wallets.
