Don't consider "ditching" - rather, consider...

..."adding to the mix."  Whenever I see postings on the various forums by folks who are consider selling off their current gear in order to adopt another system, I can almost guarantee that at some point, they will be sad that they did.

Many of us shoot with two or more different brands of gear.  Fuji have a superb offering of both cameras and lenses.  I've been smitten with their cameras - heck, I'm still using the 16 MP X-T1 and X-E2, and more recently, added the Bayer sensor 24 MP (not X-Trans) X-A3 and X-T100.  By the same token, I can pick up any of my Canon EOS M cameras and wind up enjoying them immensely.  When you try different brand gear, you come to appreciate all that they offer, plus it adds some flexibility to the mix.

So if you're considering the X-T3 - by all means, do it.  But I'd suggest (if you can swing it of course) is to "add" the X-T3 with a kit lens or more to your collection.  You won't be sorry at all - believe me on that one.  But selling off any Canon gear in order to obtain some Fuji equipment will have you experiencing "seller's remorse" at some point (sooner, rather than later).
