Don't misunderstand me. I am very impressed by the performance of the Bambu printers. They really kicked gave the established brands a kick in the butt price and performance wise.
Still it makes me uneasy to have a closed source system. I don't mind butting some effort into my printer if it is more open. I mean my ender 3 is a lot of work. I'd assume it gets better than that.
Oh I fully understand and appreciate your position. I'm pro open-source-everything, but I made the pragmatic choice in this case because, well, years of fiddling with cheap printers made me realize that I really am not into this for the fiddling but more the end product, and if nothing else, the Bambu printers are really good at damn near being appliances.
Hell, my 2d printers are more of a pain to keep working than this thing is, heh.
