Don’t forget gatekeeper replies to honest newcomer questions

And the hounding if you don't get a Bambu. Somehow "Bambu printing" and "3D printing" seem to be two different things now, given the cult-like fervor.

I want to hound people for getting a Bambu. Look at the bullshit we're dealing with on 2D printers because they aren't open source with standard parts.

Where do you see that?

While good printers, the amount of waste those Bambus produce just don't make them feasible in my eyes. If you use 4 colours, they waste about 44cm of filament while you haven't even started printing.
