Easy Equities good or bad?

I've resorted to using screenshots to gather information on the app. Ideally the app wouldn't be so laggy.

I'm looking for a few things to throw money into. Just to buy and hold, to collect dividends to buy more. Any suggestions?

Long term I'd say get the cheapest global share index and government bond index. When I last checked the Satrix MSCI World was the cheapest global share index.
 
Sygnia global 1200 started a month ago! Its 40% cheaper than older funds with the same motto!

Jump in now if you can
If you looking for something much the same but slightly cheaper, Coreshares Total World ETF

On the 17th when it's live, that'll be the primary ETF in my TFSA

While this is a good idea, just know that dividend earnings is quite low relative to the amounts you put in, especially for world ETF's. Even Satrix Divi isn't that great. The highest earning ETFs I've come across when I was focused on dividends were REIT's. You're more likely to get a bigger payout investing in a stock which pays high dividends, although there are risks with that too.

What is the actual TER on that? I don't see it on their Easy Equities page: https://etfs.easyequities.co.za/etf?isin=ZAE000296778

Ashburton S&P 1200 is 0.52%: https://etfs.easyequities.co.za/etf?isin=ZAE000289872

Satrix MSCI World is 0.35%: https://etfs.easyequities.co.za/etf?isin=ZAE000246104

If you looking for something much the same but slightly cheaper, Coreshares Total World ETF

On the 17th when it's live, that'll be the primary ETF in my TFSA

This looks promising, they are targeting 0.29% as TER: https://coreshares.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/CoreShares-Brochure-Global.pdf (page 5)
