You forgot to mention Klipper which is an amazin project and firmware.

Because its a different thing. Octoprint is a remote GUI for your printer, Klipper is a firmware (and I agree, that its the best)
Input shaping is revolutionary.
as an RRF user I hope to see those features move over one day.

It's planned. I'm unsure if I like RRF or Klipper more, so kinda keep up with both.
What's good about it?
I'm not who you asked, but since i'm preaching about it elsewhere anyway :
input shaping allows one to get rid of mechanical resonances without re-engineering the motion system on a printer. It's pretty unique to klipper -- but it's one of those features that I suspect is brilliant enough to where the other groups who develop such software will probably follow-up with their own variations.
Oh huh, nice! I think the latest Pruša firmware versions have something like this too, no?
Not sure, I haven't been following Prusa too much lately.
I've spoken to a few people on klipper who are inputing the variables for compensation in directly from an attached accelerometer on the printer frame. That'd be the way i'd want to go rather than taking a pair of calipers to the ringing artifacts on the print itself.
