Not OP, but I chose not to go Bambu because of the closed ecosystem. I like that they’re enabling custom firmware now, but they presented as very closed and proprietary, including network printing going through their cloud. While I’m not printing anything sensitive, I could see that being a concern for some, especially if you’re designing your own prints. I get that they’re the turnkey solution that “just works” out of the box, but so do my Qidi X-Plus 3 printers, and I can SSH into them if I want.
Exactly. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. You get what you (didn’t) pay for. If you try to cut employees by using AI then you deserve this. You also deserve this if you don’t pay your employees a decent wage. But they won’t learn anything from this.
