Do you happen to have small kids? They soak up so much mental energy which combined with less/worse sleep definitely makes things a lot harder than they used to be.
We're on our second Brother laser printer (not MFP) at home over 12 years, but I only changed the first printer because we needed colour instead of b/w - first one was otherwise perfectly fine.
Works swimmingly with Linux, mac and phones (both ios and android) without any special software.
