Most people don't want to pay for AI. So they are building stuff that costs a lot for a market that is not willing to pay for it. It is mostly a gimmick for most people.

Yes. But it's despite.

I'd consider btrfs if they finally make their raid5/6 implementation stable. I want to work with multiple disks without sacrificing half of my storage.

I think the idea of prusa is cool but I feel like they are a bit behind. Especially regarding price to performance. That is what I gathered from the reviews at least. They are pretty reliable but not the latest and greatest tech.

Yeah I did that math myself. I would only do that because I like my Ender 3. But in the end a complete package sounds very tempting.

Don't misunderstand me. I am very impressed by the performance of the Bambu printers. They really gave the established brands a kick in the butt price and performance wise.

Still it makes me uneasy to have a closed source system. I don't mind butting some effort into my printer if it is more open. I mean my ender 3 is a lot of work. I'd assume it gets better than that.

I don't have the space for two printers. But I think too that at some point upgrading makes sense. The Ender 3 is nice to tinker but I want something that just works.

I have had my Creality Ender 3 Pro for a while now and I have upgraded it quite a lot. Lately I have been thinking about wether I should put in some more money (better hotend, maybe new steppers, maybe enclosure, maybe part cooling fan) or if I should buy a new printer that is a more of complete package. A bit more build volume would be nice as well.

I am intrigued by the Bambu Labs printers but I don't like their somewhat proprietary approach. So I have been looking around for competitors and I saw that Creality has shown their new K2 Plus with an AMS. I wonder if it's worth waiting for that. The specs sound good. Is the K1 good now? I heard it had some problems in the beginning.
