  • The problem is that it’s not good enough to be 99.9% reliable, when it takes 4500 color switches. I wouldn’t trust Anycubic with ANYTHING; I repair machines for a living and they are the WORST when it comes to filament machines, and somehow really great when it comes to resin machines.

    The K2 Plus combo hasn’t proven itself yet. And like you said, welcome to 2025: most people don’t DIY their machines any more.

    I don’t even own a Bambu (I own a VZ330 and a Voron 2.4 310); but I have hands on familiarity with every machine on the market - I’ve been doing this for 12 years. I’ve set up every multicolor system under the sun, including palette 3 pro and ERCF – and the fact of the matter is: The only one that stays 99.999% reliable is the AMS.

    Yes, things are getting way better - for sure. I’m really hoping the K2 Plus “CMS” stands the test of time. I really like that its got a larger option and comes with the 4-way “hub” by default.

    But, even with Creality pulling out the stops on that thing – Bambu labs engineers came from DJI drones; they hit the market with fresh eyes, and they still have more protections in place than their competitors. That makes them the easiest to use for people who don’t like to learn stuff, or manage/repair their machines.












  • Propaganda is saying identifying as non-cis is wrong.

    No, Propaganda is pushing any viewpoint you want to be more adopted. It doesn’t necessarily have to disparage anything else.

    Like an iPhone ad. They don’t put up messages that are like “ew you’re an Android user, you’re so stupid and ugly”…they just put up an ad talking about how awesome having an iPhone is.

    Same thing.

    You don’t need a facebook theme to feel comfortable in your own skin. It’s there so you can make absolutely sure that everyone around you knows your orientation. Like an advertisement.

    I say either A: Remove it entirely - and use some generic theming; or B: Open up a theming engine entirely, and let everyone theme it completely however they want; like the old Winamp.

    Don’t just give a select few demographics their own theme while ignoring others. This is an even-handed approach that doesn’t discriminate against anyone or anything.
