I was pretty close to buying a P2S until I saw Jeff Geerlings latest video, which led me to Rossmanns. Bambu labs obviously hates its users, why would I give them my money?

I bought my Bambu back when orca slicer and local network was out of the box supported. It was only a few months later that they locked out their firmware and started down this path.
I’ve been steadfastly refusing to update firmware. I hope to modify it someday but if not, I’ll just make sure it’s my last Bambu.
Lol on me, I bought a p1s like 3 months ago.
Works like a charm though and 300€ is what like the hotend cost on my wanky homemade printer from the past.
Would love a full FOSS replacement ofc.is that something even possible (especially the cloud stuff, mighty convenient)?
To be fair, Bambu and their consumer hostile approach has been known for at least a year at this point when they locked out Orca Slicer from the cloud services originally.
