This is the emails between the YouTuber YGK3D and Anycubic, it seems like they won’t send 3D printers to reviewers who mention their GPL3 license violations.

tl;dr Anycubic uses open-source software for their firmware, but doesn’t make it public as per license agreement, and they don’t seem to be friendly to anyone who calls this out.

    Prusa printers are good but there’s rumblings about prusa entering his villain era. Voron printers are complicated but great since you get to learn a lot by building your own machine.

      Oh no, what rumblings would that be? Prusa has always been a ray of hope…

        More and more of their stuff is not open source and there’s some questionable Israeli suppliers.
