Almost the same situation here. However, my first designs in freeCAD had lots of errors and I experienced lots of crashes and bugs. Didn't really get into it.
My tool of choice is now OpenSCAD. It does exactly what you are designing - not more, not less.
Agreed. I'm not a V2 owner, but I built a Trident. The V2 is a little overhyped, IMHO.
In the end, it's just a matter of your own personal taste though. If you want a highly aesthetic printer with complex mechanics, go for the V2. If you like to keep it simpler without sacrificing much, go with the Trident.
If you are fine with a smaller device, the V0 may be the right choice. You could reinforce the frame and do a few other mods to achieve insane (yet experimental) print speeds. 1500 mm/s is doable.
That's what I'm trying to say - in the probably most upsetting way - All of my distros - Ubuntu, Nobara, Debian and so on: all of them have vi as a symlink - only, these days.
There is no such thing as "color"!
