Hey all,

I'm planning on upgrading my Ender 3 V2 with a new printer, and I'm not sure which printer to choose.

SV08 has a massive build area, which I really like because of the size of my personal projects. And Klipper is a plus I guess? Never tried this firmware before.

On the other hand Prusa is well tested and known, also its multicolor extension is alluring to me.

Can you share your experiences if you used them before to help me choose? Thanks!

Isn’t prusa the company that did a 180 this year and started to enshitify their firmware? I remember some open source 3d printer co deciding to fuck over their fan bases good will this year and I thought it was them?

Yeah, they have taken some things proprietary with software and hardware. This was done in response to Chinese manufacturers, and yes Bambu in particular, taking the proprietary pathway and not giving new ideas back to the open source community.

Now, Bambu making proprietary products is well within their right. But that makes life harder for a true open source manufacturer to make enough money to stay in business. So it ain't taking 20/10 vision to read the writing on the wall if Prusa intends to stay in business. So there is a real need to protect themselves.
