Pretty much, I've been working on reducing my dependence on big tech companies by self hosting or using open source where possible. While impossible to do fully, at least if I lose an account things are either backed up or I'm only losing a small amount of my data.

Not saying you can't find openly racist people in the country, especially some very rural areas, but the chance of running into people who aren't friendly to visiting foreigners of any appearance is extremely low. Canada is quite multicultural, especially in the major cities where you wouldn't even garner a second glance from people.
Agreed, no matter what comes out Trackmania is the game that has me coming back day after day.
I'd love Jellyfin if not for their incredibly infuriating seek behaviour. Why do I have to press play to start the video again?
Considering how much of Crofton is employed by the mill this is a massive blow to a small community.
The STL export will take your nice parametric model and turn it into triangles. The software defaults of most CAD systems are terrible for this. (I'll die on the hill that STL needs to be phased out and STEP needs to become the default for precisely this reason). If you add a vector in the slicer then it has the context to be able to choose the right quality when slicing.
If Windows overwrites your EFI partition then you won't be able to boot into grub. It absolutely happens, I've had it happen with my main computer within the past year.
Windows generally works fine alongside Linux, but then randomly one day you could log on and it boots straight into Windows and to fix it you need to learn the "fun" task of fixing your system with arch-chroot.
I suspect the Prusa issues were because you had a bunch of people not taking care of the machines. My Prusa Mk3S was just as reliable as my Bambu P1S.
Xbox controllers can be a bit unreliable on Linux in my experience. I've got an 8BitDo Ultimate 2C wireless that I quite like. They are way cheaper than an Xbox controller, have hall effect joysticks, and low measured latency.
It depends on the type of person you are. Those machines you reference are in a class of machine where you are likely to have to put a lot of work into them to get them running reliably and probably more money than if you just bought a better printer from the get go. They are machines to recommend people who want the 3D Printer to be their hobby rather than designing and printing stuff.
If that doesn't sound like you, just buy a used Bambu or Prusa even if you need to delay the purchase to save up longer.
