The questions are relevant but unnecessary. There are different suppliers in each country and so the filament brands will vary by country. And besides, it is known that 10 printers have 11 different opinions.

For the price, Elegoo Rapid PETG has been very nice and the ol' MK4s hasn't complained once. PLA, I usually end up with SUNLU brand. Again, no issues. I would start with whatever you find reasonably priced. A little tuning and drying and it all goes down.

I've been using various filaments I purchase from Amazon: Elegoo, Overture, Duramic and eSun in both PLA and PETG. No problems with any of them using the standard Prusa profiles. The eSun brand is a bit stringy though compared to the others, but still manageable.
