Pretty much any mikrotik is a fantastic piece of kit to have.
It is so unbelievably versatile.
I love the various mikrotik routers, switches and APs I have. I use them all the time for little ad-hoc networks and projects and stuff.
You will learn a lot about networking when using them.
But Unifi is a hell of a lot easier to use, and I have not found anything I can’t do on unifi (but I don’t do bgp, mlag, etc at home).

I had to upgrade my EdgeRouterX when I got gig fiber. I kept the Ubiquiti APs, I really like their management interface. But I replaced the router with a Mikrotik RB4011iGS+ because I thought it had a better feature set than the equivalent UBNT and was half the price.
