Yeah I bought a Prusa, and it’s clear they got blindsided by Bambu and they’re still scrambling to catch up. What Prusa used to do well, they still do well, what they used to do badly they now do even worse and what they used to didn’t do they’ve started a token effort at making it look like they do now.
yeah i think prusa really needs to lean much harder into open source… like thats kinda their biggest selling point against bamboo, but there only half-arsing it imo
like an AMS system… why have they not taken one of the open source projects and made it an offical prusa thing, provided financial backing, kits, and developed it?
IMO they could be years ahead of bamboo if they just took all the work the open source community is doing and ran with it, providing a kinda polished, easy version of the DIY side of 3d printing
heck even made their online print farm management system self-hostable and open so people could extend it… that’d absolutely crush bamboo for commercial operations
