GG poker VS PokerStars

What do people think of GG for cash games, I have been tempted to sign up but not done so yet. Not a fan of the childish graphics, high rake, preflop rake, some of the shenanigans of the ambassadors (e.g. Bryn Kenny and his stable), admin fees, over the top ID requirements etc.... but if the games are soft enough I may be persuaded!

I might've stated that there's 2-3x as many players playing on the tables in the games I'm playing in... but actually it's MUCH more than this.
@ 2nl there's 16x as many players right this minute
@5nl, 10nl & 25nl there is 9x, 9x & 6x as many on GG vs. Stars. And wayyyy more donks!

Which is better? From personal experiences I say PS is better. Why? Cause I can withdraw money from them unlike GG. The credentials that are needed in GG are out to lunch and they won’t verify your account without utility bills. But what happens to those who rent and have their utilities included in their rent? And why isn’t a phone bill/internet bill not a utility bill??? PokerStars, all u need to ID!!! I play on GG on a fake account with my roommates as the owner of the account just cause they have the utility bill in their name. Haven’t verified it yet and only will try if I somehow turn a free roll into real money (10k+).
