Looking for a new credit card this year. Switching away from Chase. What’s the latest and greatest offer worth looking into.
Not a frequent traveler anymore. Looking for comfort / lounge and more for family vacations. EWR is closest airport if it matters. TIA

Highly recommend Capital One Venture X! Let me know if you need a referral!

The ones I used in London and India were great! But I understand that the quality can differ.

AMEX will have a lounge coming in 2026 to EWR. I would recommend the Capital One venture X card too, but if lounge is a must, it may not be a right fit for you out of EWR. It’ll depend on your connections and destination.

I just opened a Venture Rewards. How long should I wait before opening a Venture X?

Depends on if you’re keeping to the 5/24 rule (Chase). Might limit your options with Chase if you’ve opened 5 or more cards (any brand) in the past 24 months. So you’d want to space them out (typically 5-6 months). Have heard from others that Capital One typically approves one card every six months.

Anyone know of an alternative to StackOverflow for asking tech questions? The community is super toxic and I'm looking for a place I can casually ask questions that might seem dumb without being hrangued for not providing an essay proof of the research I've already done. Or some sort of buddy system where I can ping a person of relevant experience those questions. It's better to poke someone's brain for a minute than to spin in circles reading docs/dead end articles sometimes.
