OK, I don't remember having a particular thought about this before so I can't just tell you "Oh I always assumed it was this" or whatever.

I've taken a good look at the thread and I want to check with you that I've got this right. I've put the arguments into my own words to check I've understood, and arranged them into the kind of separate arguments.

Regarding what Enoch says about the attacking ship:
 * Brett3801's point according to Bennyhef234: The Chronicoms were the ones who destroyed Enoch's ship in 2018 because he said in 2019 that it's the same ship coming for them now, and that's the Chronicoms.
 * Bennyhef234:: No, Enoch recognises the ship coming as the same ship that attacked him, then becomes suspicious because they're not acting like the Confederacy - it's actually the Chronicoms. And the implication in there is that in a ship like that, it should be the Confederacy, so it was presumably the Confederacy who attacked him before. If it were the Chronicoms in 2018, he wouldn't be surprised in 2019 that it's the Chronicoms, as he encountered them in that ship last year.
 * Bennyhef234: It was the Confederacy in 2018, then it's likely that between that attack and Season 6, the Chronicoms took their ships. Presumably, then, the destruction of Chronyca-2 happened in that window as well. Attack on ship, Chronyca-2, taking the Confederacy ships, Season 6.
 * Brett3801: Enoch recognises the ship but notices they're acting strange and comes to the realisation that it's the Chronicoms and always was.

Why would the Chronicoms attack so violently, though?:
 * Bennyhef234: If it were the Chronicoms attacking in 2018, why would they attack so violently?
 * Bennyhef234: Why would they risk Enoch and Fitz dying? They had nothing against Enoch yet.
 * Brett3801: They did have something against Enoch, for tampering with the universe.

Why would the Confederacy attack, though?:
 * Brett3801: The Confederacy, though, would have no reason to attack, whereas the Chronicoms do have a reason if you assume it's after the destruction of Chronyca-2, and/or the Chronicoms want Enoch for trial for tampering with the timeline and don't care about Fitz. Plus, we know Atarah doesn't care if he dies even later.
 * Brett3801: Also, if it were the Chronicoms you wouldn't need to address it, it just makes sense. If it were the Confederacy, you would need to, and they didn't.
 * Brett3801: Also, the Confederacy doesn't appear so it would be weird for them to be involved otherwise.

Surmising things about timings from dialogue:
 * Brett3801: Atarah says they spent a year chasing Fitz and Enoch, and it's been about a year since the attack, so that would line up with the implication that it was the Chronicoms.
 * Brett3801: Fitz mentions the Kree, and Simmons only describes a brief run-in with them, so they (the Confederacy include the Kree) weren't behind the main attack.
 * Brett3801: Fitz and Enoch had bounties on their heads before Kitson, so seemingly for a while, and the Chronicoms placed the bounty. So, it was probably because of the failed attack.
 * Bennyhef234: Malachi only just got the message that they're wanted in Season 6, he wouldn't get the message a year later if they were the ones who put it on Fitz and Enoch.
 * Brett3801: He wasn't learning about the bounty in that moment, he was learning about the plan.
