Do they really think they are that mainstream now that they can pull the "fuck you" switch? You're still almost exclusively patronized by the people that can actually read and think, bambu. Your customer will decidedly act against your broken business now. Enjoy.

This is Reddit, but if you want to hear from the asshole making decisions and see their username. https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/zmz8vv/i_am_dr_ye_tao_ceo_of_bambu_lab_ask_me_anything/

I do like that my Aquilla can be modded so I can use whatever firmware (and literally any other hardware that fits) I want because it's open source and based on the Ender 3.

I was about to pick up an a1 mini. Are there alternatives for beginners in that price range?

The more people that get involved with it, then the more printers it would support

Installing right now.

I originally had thought, "I mean I always have that option". Now it's clear that option may disappear at any time.

And done. Seems their servers are overloaded. The unlock confirmation page looped for a while til it finally let me through to choose my printer and unlock it.

I just got their new 3d printer and was having a great time with it... Won't be updating firmware or buying anymore products with them until they fix this

Are you also preventing it from automatically getting an update?
