Never understood the obsessive tinkerers, all that work to have something worse than a Bambu P1S. To each their own ig, I just see my printer as a means to an end I don't want to mess with it. I want to mess with the stuff I build with it

TBH the 5 years I spent tinkering with my Ender 3 were a lot of fun. Overcoming the little problems and getting the settings right was always satisfying. But at some point enough was enough. My A1 is like a little robot wizard - I hand it a file, it conjures me an object and plays a little song when it's ready. I'm loving it!

I also started with an Ender 3 and it taught me a lot but I am glad to have a little wizard machine now

a printer is a means to a means to a means to a better printer
