First 3D printer advice (self.3dprinting)

Hello, I am looking to buy my first filament 3D printer. Any printer or printer brand you recommend and why? What 3D modeling software is usually used to design? Any tips are welcome! (my budget would be 200-300€) I would like to eventually get into resin printing as well.

Yea, manually adjusting the x axis and lubricating the bearings are mentioned as negatives for this printer in the buying guide that I linked, but those are very easily fixable "flaws" compared to other similarly priced printers.

I might've gone overboard with a few parts but I've spent €300 on upgrading my E3v2 to get it to a point where I'm happy with its performance
