    If you “just care about printing stuff” then why would you go with the walled garden that relies on userlocks, proprietary formats, and forced network connectivity to function? Not to mention the fire risk and rug pulling…

    Because I don’t care about the walled garden. The only thing I would mind is locking down filament but they don’t do that. So these things aren’t a negative to me. Not a positive either, just a neutral.

    That Kobra looks nice, all the Anycubics I’ve seen in our makerspace are all the old ones that are basically Prusa Mk3 knockoffs. And it’s affordable, it looks basically like an A1 but with 4 colour printing without the ams. Nice! I’d consider that for my next printer.
