A potentially overzealous cease-and-desist email to the OrcaSlicer fork developer, Pawel Jarczak, by Bambu Lab, is not playing out well on social media, with YouTube giants such as Gamers Nexus and Louis Rossmann weighing in on what they feel is unfair behavior.
Prusa never leads the pack for innovation and their prices aren’t low. But it’s a company I feel good about supporting and they make solid machines you can actually own.
I wouldn’t even consider Creality a good option. Right now the Snapmaker U1 is in my opinion the best printer for the money that still respects the user. It’s not perfect, and I don’t think anyone has matched Bambu in terms of out of the box experience and software integration, but I’m not aware of any toolchanger that can keep up for the price. It’s easy to flash custom firmware and while they took a little while to publish their source code, they have done so as promised/required.
I’ve been thinking of buying. Other than creality though, what are good options

I’ll leave this here to follow the thread, also currently researching options
