I'm a bit surprised that nobody mentioned prusa as a replacement?
FMU that's where Bambu originally copied from!?
My short dive into 3d printers stopped once I was highlighted to the micro plastics pollution they create in the air, but still I would've gone for a prusa, already because all parts are free soft- and hardware.
Prusa is not even fully open source anymore, bunch of excuses.. and definitelythey have a pricing god complex...
Bambu still the best machines to date, especially if you consider price. If you do not upgrade NOTHING changes - and its only planned for the X-series as of now. People are being too hysterical.

Prusa has a pricing issue, I don't think there's another way to go around it.
I've been in the market for a 3D printer, and Prusa is rarely recommended for entry / mid-range printers (at least where I've looked).
I don't know about the high-end range, but a lot of content about high-end stuff still revolves around Bambulab X1C—those content creators could be paid for, of course, even though many claim they aren't. Just seems like Bambulab printers are really good for the price.
Now I get that Prusa is positioning itself as a local manufacturer in EU, and they are just a representation of the cost of making products in this setting - and I'm ok with this! I won't pay for it because I'm not their target customer, but I support it 100%.

Or is there anything else I'm missing?
