Last year I said I'd probably never recommend another Bambu Lab printer again.
I still use my P1S, but after Bambu Lab started pushing their always-connected cloud solution as the new default:
I blocked the printer from the Internet via my OPNsense Firewall I stopped updating the firmware I locked the printer into Developer mode I deleted Bambu Studio and started using OrcaSlicer I had to do that to keep it under my control, instead of Bambu's.
Not quite yet. He’s basically said he’s ready to back a legal challenge to it.
Louis is encouraging someone to keep doing what they’re doing despite Bambu sending someone a cease and desist and Louis will provide some funding for legal support if Bambu keeps pushing. But there isn’t anything going directly after them yet.
He just uploaded orcaslicer to the FULU GitHub and invited Bambu to sue him instead… I’m ordering popcorn in bulk for this one 🍿
You’re right. Maybe it better in general to let other people fight while he supports, this way more people learn to fight back.
