Literally saved up for a Bambu and was going to buy yesterday, then I saw the news drop and noped the fuck out! I ordered a Qidi instead to replace my Ender 3... Please tell me Qidi is not this same type of tom-fuckery...

I've never heard of Qidi before, but it looks like their firmware is GPLv3 and forked from Klipper, so you should be good.

Lot of bang for the buck for their cheapest model - 350c for the extruder with hardened tip stock, heated chamber, 120c bed temp, enclosed, 245x245x240mm print volume.

Yeah, looks like a pretty solid package from their site, and the firmware is right there on github

Coolio! I look forward to printing nylon out of the box!
