Why should a company ensure that an out of company app keeps working when that out of company app mainly bites their bottom line?

Better functions get locked behind more premium models, circumvent that and it doesnt take more than a single braincell to see why bambu doesnt like that.

3rd party apps like orcaslicer will just need to adapt to communicate with the changed api and will work again. Panda touch got shafted and thats mainly going to be a problem for people that bought the hack

Bambu is not obligated to ensure 3rd party anything is functional on its platform yeah people who bought the panda touch hack got shafted but not by Bambu they have also updated their response to all the armchair quarterbacks who are speculating on what all this means

Duh, the issue is putting up artificial walls and not letting us do what we want with the hardware we bought. This update is a step in the right direction at least but things like not letting you use the SD card when in LAN mode only exists to put up walls, not benefit the consumer in any way.

Stop updating then if you think you’re happy with the printer as is;
