Where are people staking ETH nowadays?

I’m not really a crypto person and don’t follow the news much, but about 5 years ago I bought 1 ETH and staked it on Kraken, then just left it. I recently checked my account and was pretty happy with the staking rewards that piled up.

Now I’ve got a few more ETH sitting on my Ledger and I’d like to stake them as well. What’s the best way to do this nowadays?

I know I could just send them to Kraken to stake, but I’d rather not keep them on an exchange. Through Ledger I see options like Lido and Coinbase, but from what I understand, those involve converting ETH into some sort of token, which I’m not too comfortable with.

Also, I heard the unstaking queue is super long now – like up to 2 months? But when I checked Kraken, it said more like a week. Why is there such a big difference?

Where are people staking ETH these days, and what’s the most straightforward and safest option for someone who doesn’t want to get too deep into the complexities?
