What Nero gets right here is that
- we don't win if there's only one company
- he touches on the idea of "intent". It's not about what a company backs down from. Judge them by what they intend to do, or what they have tried to do, or what they would if they could. Or will in the future.

Yes, there are other options, no, they aren't automatically worse. Vote with your wallet.

Breaking my personal rule of not recommending anything 3d printing related here: I'm very happy with my recent acquisition of a QiDi Q1 Pro.

For the record, rug pulls like their recent one are precisely the reason why I wish people would finally stop buying into the Bambulab hype & aggressive marketing and instead get a 3d printer from a company that doesn't force their cloud down their throat together with their proprietary hardware.

Since tomorrow is December's Charlie's Angel stream, time to make last months building of the 3DSets Mini Rescuer public!

You can tell its a good printer cus it has RGB
also fun fact, this v0 has been sitting under the bench collecting dust for almost 3 years, fired it up, sliced a print, loaded filament, cleaned the dust off the bed and send it.

Thanks @jantec.bsky.social for showing us around town this afternoon! See you at Formnext!
