Stay with wix?

I’m about to rebuild the website for my construction company. It’s a pretty standard site mainly used for lead generation. I currently use Wix. It has been fine I have used it for years. Recently with all of the ai additions and fee hikes I am reconsidering if it is the best bet for me. Now would be a good time to make a transition if there is a better suited alternative

What I like:

I run QuickBooks and it integrates invoicing nicely. The customer service for their plugin is actually quite good.
- Ease of use
- Metrics on the dashboard
- I’m familiar with the suite

What I don’t like: (not critical issues

- Slower load times on mobile
- I don’t own the site
- changing fees
- AI being pushed down your throat

I’ve used squarespace and Wordpress in the past. I’m comfortable hosting the site on a 3rd party host.
I’m ok with a learning curve if there is a real benefit.

In your opinion would I be better to set up shop somewhere else or really lean into the wix platform

Curious what you would use if you had to do it all over again.
