Anyone else finding KYC/KYB on new brokers getting stricter?

Been looking at a couple of new setups recently, specifically for better access to some smaller altcoin pairs that my current broker doesn't offer, and the onboarding process just feels like it's gotten significantly more drawn out. Not just the initial documents, but the follow-ups and secondary verifications are really grinding things to a halt. It makes sense, obviously, with regulatory pressure and everything, but the friction is definitely there. Is this just my experience with a couple of particular platforms, or are others seeing a general tightening across the board for both retail and even prop firm applications? Makes you wonder how much more red tape we'll be dealing with in another year or two, especially for those of us who jump between providers based on offerings.
