Of all the cloud gaming services I've experienced, Stadia has the least amount of settings I've seen. You cannot turn any notifications off (of which there are a constant barrage, most annoyingly the "your microphone is connect" bs); you cannot adjust bandwidth draw; and you cannot enable any warnings for bad connection. I think the most frustrating part of using Stadia for me, aside from the lack of customisable settings, is the fact that you'll just get dropped from a game immediately, and without warning, if it detects a slightly lower internet speed. I continue to be absolutely floored by the fact that with the backing of Google, Stadia has the least user-friendly platform ever, and arguable the worst product possible. Even Amazon's Luna and Macrohard's xbone services are better, and those both are riddled with issues as well...

Neo basically got it, but to add onto it a bit more: It has a lot better servers than Stadia and is basically just like playing any game you own on steam/gog/ubisoft/epic but with a monster rig. Their rigs are so good that playing Cyberpunk 2077 was actually an enjoyable experience. The only monetary incentive they have is that they offer a subscription service that gives you a faster queue into the game (since there are limited amount of virtual machines available) and extends you play sessions to 6 hours (the default is 1hr). Once a play session ends you can just go straight back into the game, granted, I have rarely played long enough to experience it, but it has never been an issue, since relaunching a game through their app is pretty quick. The only issue with GFN, is, like Neo said, they rely on licensing, and some game devs do not want to support them, since they can make more money through Stadia or any of the other competitors (like Amazon's), since those require consumers to repurchase games they already own... That being said, Larian has always had their games on GFN, so I'm expecting Baldur's Gate 3 to be on there too, but the early access currently isn't, hence why I'm here ^-^' The basic service of GFN is free, so I recommend you try it out. You have instant access to any free game, like Apex Legends, Neverwinter, etc., as long as you have an account on the requisite platform.

Exactly! GeForce Now basically just works as a remote pc, and I've never had to wait more than a day for something to be updated on their end, while Stadia, with the backing of Google(!), Is unable to give its users any tools to alter their game experience nor any info to alleviate the concerns we all have. I'm basically only going to play BG3 on Stadia until it's available on GFN, then I'm outtie, because the Stadia team is really awful with giving updates or encouraging developers to implement bug fixes that already exist on other versions. I've never seen so much potential willfully squandered...
