I have a Knolly Endo. I came off a Pivot M6 which is a lovely carbon bike. I noticed no frame material related differences in the ride. Obviously not apples to apples. I'd happily buy another carbon frame if it was significantly lighter than the metal version. But carbon frames that are as heavy as a quality metal frame and cost $1K+ USD more?...No thanks.
FWIW - I put a 1" setback dropper on my Knolly because I found the STA steeper than optimal for pedalling efficiency.
