From what I can tell from the announcements on-line - as distinct from the psuedo-reviews - Canon did a good job of releasing their new RF camera and lenses. This is well reflected here on LULA and in other places. Whereas Nikon did a terrible job with the release, as they have been with their marketing in general. I am not sure if LULA was particularly ill-treated for some reason or if you are a victim of some general Nikon marketing malaise.
Thom Hogan, whom I respect regarding all things Nikon (and for his expertise about the overall camera market) has been tearing his hair out about how Nikon's marketing has been basically just not there in many ways in the past few years, as one effect of top-level management cost-cutting.

Personally, I went from large heavy Canon EF to smaller lighter Fuji X for a number of years, but I got frustrated with the endless Fuji software and firmware updates. (My repeated experience was that, frankly, despite the PR that you hear, they are not very good at it.) So I have also been using a Canon M5 and waiting - for going on two years now - for Canon to release some lenses for that system beyond the consumer convenience level. But it seems clear that the Canon EF-M mount is pretty darn incompatible with the new RF mount, so I think my hopes for EF-M becoming anything more than an "entry level feeder system" will not bear fruit.
My point: looking just at announced specs, for my uses, the Nikon Z6 and lens roadmap interests me more than the Canon RF initial offering. I don't think either company would put out a lousy product. It may not be exactly what one hoped for, but it will do what they say it will do, and will have good ergonomics from their respective decades of experience. I am in a position to order one or the other. Personally I have pre-ordered the Nikon Z6 and f/4 24-70 and am ignoring the youtube shrillness. The 50mm prime looks interesting, as well. I am sure I would be happy with the Canon R and 24-105 plus primes, too, but among other things it is $800 more expensive for something that is pretty equivalent.
