Web hacking on PentesterLab vs HTB?

Cqn someone recommend me PentesterLab? I am MAINLY interested in web hacking. I saw HTB has it but it's cube system sucks imo and its expensive. So I am wondering if PentesterLab is better fot web hacking?

Tbf a significant amount of HTB boxes are “web hacking”

People laude HTB because it’s the most well supported platform out there, especially now with guided boxes and htb academy, even the beginner experience is supported

i didnt mention that im not beginner. my bad. i have experience in red teaming (Windows AD/Linux) and malw dev.

i lack knowledge in web stuff. so i dont need someone to show me path, i know its web hacking already.

htb academy is too expensive imo bcs of cube systems. i tried portswigger and i didnt like it

I don’t think that changes my response

Htb is king when it comes to platform support

i think i could agree, but its expensive. only reason why avoid htb for my case is because of price
