Comment on The Saga Of Hacking A Bambu X1 Carbon

  It’s the kind of enshittification Bambu is moving towards. I kind of expect them to do something like this in the near future, only allowing the “correct” filament and hiding the full potential of “your” machine behind subscriptions nust like car manufacturers.

    Honestly, I don’t see it happening. Granted, I’d be spared that outcome anyway, I run custom firmware on my X1. But while they’re a bit of a pain about some things, I don’t see them taking steps like that. They’re more of a Chinese pain (don’t share the source code, don’t follow the standards) than an American pain (money at every turn, subscriptions, vendor lockouts, etc).

      …The problem isn’t what Bamboo might decide to do or not decide to do. It’s that they have broad power to do what they want, have demonstrated that already, and whatever they decide, the majority of people who _already bought their product, will just have to accept.
