Tldr: Did Bambu address the issue, and should I look into updating firmware now.

For context, I got a Bambu Printer just before they released the changes to improve “security” and have been on old firmware since. I was looking at the Bambu Wiki and saw this page that indicated that all of the important LAN functions would be opened up. Unfortunately it requires being on LAN only mode, but I’ve been on LAN only since January because of their changes so it doesn’t effect me much.

I’m not dependent on their cloud features as I am home a substantial amount of the time and I have a server for when I’m not (to use home assistant or wtv). From my point of view the developer mode seems to address my issues, but I wanted to know some other people’s thoughts on the whole controversy and how it was addressed by Bambu.
