Well, that escalated very fast with those miners signaling Segwit2x. I think Segwit2x will be the compromise that makes everyone happy.

I'm gonna buy a bottle of Bacardy rum when this long-term scaling debat has come to an end.

Signalling means nothing so far! The miners can still play stupid games with us. And some of them will! That's for sure!
Furthermore I will take SegWit and will be happy about that. But a few months later they can fork off if they want! I will definitely not run their client and will definitely not be part of this huge block network they are trying to build.

As far i know getting Segwit via miners is saver than UASF with a possible chain-split. I thought it is compatible with Bip48. If they cheat uss then we dont run there client and ore PoW change.
I still see them as suspicios especially with there rushed HF.

More miners has signaled Segwit2x.
