Probably want to avoid Ledger. They collect user emails and shipping details and leaked over 270k customer records. Then they tried to cover up the leak for way too long.
Many Ledger customer have been targeted with phishing scams. Don't ship your hardware wallet to your home address.

Some more reasons to avoid ledger:
  1. They disabled the ability for connecting to your own node in Ledger Live, this is a major issue and indicative of their mindset. If you must, use Ledger hardware with another wallet UI such as Sparrow
  2. They support a bunch of shitcoins like Bitcoin Cash. People can and do get confused and have lost funds from this.
