its really a kick in the balls that the prusa mk3s is like $150 worth of parts and people are like oh but youre paying with REAL CUSTOMER SERVICE unlike fucking chinese factory products and then when our 3d printer has never worked right in its entire life that $650 of customer service value is waiting 20 minutes for a chat opportunity that's just some guy saying "show me these 10 indicators of user error again even though you just showed me and demonstrated no user error because i dont believe you that our product could be fucked up if it wasnt your fault" and after all that its not even worth melting down for parts. its a 2005 garage kit printer they sell as worth the same value as modern $1000 printers because It Just Works™️. you can get approximately the same value out of a $200 ender 3 and a swift kick in the head
#its partially on me for buying in but i didnt know shit about printers in 2020 or whenever and literally every single publication and#3d print community was so definitively confident that your 2 options are an ender 3 if you like suffering. or a prusa.#i had no reason at the time to think a rabidly open source and anticommercialist community would mislead me for the sake of a brand name!
