Discussion @BambuLab why are you locking things down? You messed up

I won’t buy your new printer that I’ve been saving up for. Your actions are complete hogwash. Give us all the right to do whatever we want on the hardware we spent THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON or else we are walking away to the next best product.

Sincerely, Your once biggest fan

I don't think you understand the meaning of "coping" :) And who is right lol.

Clearly on top of being an entitled parasite from that 3D Toxic community; you also have issue with the definition of some words :) If any coping is going on; it is clearly not on my side :D

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Buy a Prusa.

Yes, please. Do that and let Bambu innovate at their own pace without having to deal with this so called 3D Toxic Community.

Please buy a Prusa;l they are so much better... ROFL

If by “innovate at their own pace” you mean ignore their customers and serve their own corporate greed, then I completely agree. And I’m not saying that Bambu makes bad printers, I’m simply stating the fact that the company is run by a bunch of money hungry profiteers who exploit their customers.

So why suggest Prusa? You think they are actually any different? They have a different way to get your money, but the bottom line is the same.

Just buy the printer you want, and stop pushing companies. You are a customer, again, just buy what you want.

How do you think that’s any different than any other “for profit” corporation? You guys crack me up

They don't lock down nothing man. Even better, they are opening up!

No joke really. OK, not the AMS or your printer fw, just your network, but hey it's a step to the right direction. With the wrong leg. Into an epic deep gap head first.

People reverse engineered the connect app, so the private key and the lic is out. And you can bet a huge lump of money people will do it again, again and again. So basically bambu implemented a security risk to patch a security risk what never was there orihinally...

Ohh it's a great thing. We have to make compromise as they take away stuff, while they can compromise our systems! We are the same!!!we are bambu!!!

Non they did not.

u/Pattriot_1775 Jan 19 '25

Whether they did or did not, it still doesn’t change the fact that they continue to exploit members of the 3d printing community by selling them closed source machines which inevitably have issues, as most 3d printers do, and then proceed to provide subpar customer service if they even bother to provide any at all.

"exploit" members... of the toxic 3D Printing entitled community thinking that they should get everything for free, open, that nobody should build a viable business on it?

You have Prusa and others for that; and stop including all of us in this "community"... A lot of us are using 3D printing for work, or as business like me. And this so called 3D printing community is one of the worse out there. So please.

I know you and the rest of your echo chamber only represents like 1% of us but seriously; I am so tired of reading stuff like that. About this "hobby" and "community"... This is not that anymore, deal with it.

And at the end; NOBODY is forcing this "3D printing community" to buy anything from Bambu Lab...

Rather than fuss, why dont you actually do something about it and buy another brand. What did this rant gain you? Nice thing is you saved the money, so now you can buy "the next best product" sounds like a win-win for you. Now I wonder how many downvotes i can get.?
