really what OpenBB is, whether they realize it or not, is a one-stop setup and UX for a lot of the python data tools, which are pretty great and could use an integrated framework.

One UX instead of accessing FRED, Polygon, FMP, AlphaVantage etc. with pandas datareader in a Jupyter notebook is pretty good. The OpenBB name is a bit of pushy marketing. It beats GameStonk Terminal which was (no joke) the original name.

But tbh, might be just a matter of time before they have to change it for legal reasons. But also, there will be some publicity in the forced name change.
