Investigation discovers the surprising result that slicers introduce more error into prints than the printer itself.

Prusa. Stay away from fusion most of all.

I've always used Cura, I liked the UI more (with some plugins) was anything said about it?

Is there a Fusion slicer? I just know of Fusion360, the CAD software.

Fusion lets you print from the UI. I have never used it. I always export an stl or step and load that into the slicer.
