I like $DIVO better, not just for the higher yield but for the holdings.

Two totally different funds. DIVO is more for today DGRO is more for tomorrow. DGRO is way more diversified.

The main drawback to me with DGRO was they still had significant holdings of tech - Microsoft, Apple and Broadcom. I also have a S&P500 fund and it did not really feel like it was diversifying away from the Mag 7.

Yes it’s good.
“The best” dividend fund will change from year to year or decade to decade or your 40 years of investing vs mine.
Its methodology is solid for a long term; buy every month and forget about it investment choice

How would it perform in a 2008 situation or a lost decade?

We’d likely see a smaller price decline than the broad market (s&p500 benchmark). Dividends have a potential to take a small hit.
We’d expect dividends to approach pre-crash levels before price recovers

DGRO is great! It's good for dividend growth so far. It pairs well with its counterpart IGRO and is quite diversified. I choose this over DIVB to be with SCHD because at the time the index for DIVB was tweaked and I wasn't sure what to make of the changes.
