I have enjoyed my Ender 3v2 but my extruder and hot end are acting up and I am ready for a more reliable printer. I like the simplicity of Bambu but it seems to come at the cost of customization. Prusa seems to be more open and extendable, but at the cost of increased complexity. What would you recommend?

I'd add that quality and their adherence to open standards comes at a cost. That's why prusa is more and a little behind in fancy new features. But 100% that's a cost I'm willing to make to support such an amazing company that treats their employees so well and gives so much to the community.
