What I use is noclogger - https://noclogger.com/ - which does what you're asking for.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply! I sliced the benchy myself but during printing filament broke inside the nozzle. After hours with support I still have not managed to get all of it out, so I will probably order another nozzle and try again - I hope that this also fixes my benchy problem.

On that note, it would be great if Prusa sold a metal rod which fits exactly inside the nozzle tube (not sure if this is the right term, I mean the metal tube feeding the filament to the nozzle). My main problem is that I cannot reach in far enough to push all stuck filament out.

Yes, it's under-extruded. What nozzle are you using? Could possibly get this if using a high flow nozzle but printing something sliced for a regular flow.

Hi! I just assembled my core one+ (my first 3d printer) and printed a few benchies. Overall I am quite happy, but all of them have this issue where the right corner in the back has a little "wobble". It seems as if the right side of the boat was printed just a tiny bit too short. As all of my five benchies have this issue. Based on my newbie research this might be due to under extrusion but I lack printing experience to be sure - I was hoping somebody could confirm this or point me in the right direction.

The model file is the default benchy from the USB delivered with the printer (so I did not slice it). I already did the manual belt tuning and did calibrations with an accelerometer. The filament used is Prusament PLA. I did not change any of the default settings in the printer (running on firmware 6.4.) other than doing the calibrations, initial tests and the wifi connection.
