Another tool worth exploring is EasyEDA. The fun part is you can even run it as a webapp.
It's tightly linked with the JLCPCB/LCSC ecosystem, so there's a lot of libraries of parts and it scans for their design rules, if you want to use their services.
There's also a somewhat basic auto-router baked in, which is harder to integrate in KiCAD.
I do agree that KiCAD is the consensus "full fat" tool these days, but I've put together decent projects in both.
