3D Printer Reviewers: Being honest in this industry will put you out of a job.

This is the emails between the YouTuber YGK3D and Anycubic, it seems like they won’t send 3D printers to reviewers who mention their GPL3 license violations.

tl;dr Anycubic uses open-source software for their firmware, but doesn’t make it public as per license agreement, and they don’t seem to be friendly to anyone who calls this out.

Bambu labs entire business plan was YouTube marketing. YouTube is infomercials.

To be fair their printers (P1S and H2D) are reliable workhorses, I cant remember if I ever had a failed print and they are basically in 24/7 operation since a year. Never had to do any maintenance.

I can’t get my p1p off the cloud. It’s a supported function. It just refuses to work if I use it. I cannot connect it to Ethernet or USB either. Almost like this thing was intentionally gimped
