Bambu Lab Backlash Grows Over Crackdown on Open-Source Software

Original: Bambu Tried to Shut Down Open-Source Software. I Switched.

3D printing commentators are criticizing Bambu Lab after the company moved to restrict the use of open-source software with its printers, a shift widely seen as an attack on the community-driven ecosystem that helped popularize its machines. One prominent reviewer says the change prompted a switch to alternatives, and the video has drawn more than 165,000 likes, reflecting strong feeling among hobbyists.

Why now: Bambu Lab's restrictions on third-party and open-source software have angered the 3D printing community and raised questions about lock-in and ownership of printers people bought.
