Many free tax softwares don't handle schedule E and other things beyond w2 and 1099-int. However, not all of them are so limited.
Guess what, the pay ones have been caught sharing your info without your permission and sued over it...

I use Tax Free USA with 1099s, schedule E, bonds, stock sales, etc... with no issues.
Most other free/low cost ones also handle all those just fine.
The IRS is piloting IRS Direct File this year in 12 states, but limited scenarios are covered. They plan to expand the functionality in coming years. More info: https://www.irs.gov/about-irs/a-c...file-pilot [irs.gov]
Just need to show their calc first and ask to enter if there is any adjustments (deduction or foreign income/tax credit) in theory like other countries.
But it is working like a poker game now that they don't show their hands until we show ours first, then screw if ours are not correct for their view.

In my opinion, Direct File could be a real revolution if they incorporate this functionality. OR maybe, just maybe, the existence of Direct File will force the commercial tax software industry to actually innovate and then maybe then they'll incorporate this kind of functionality. Other than adding an online option that is more expensive and less functional, nothing has changed with the functionality of tax software in decades.
