Yeah I'm actually in a similar situation as valmond and what you just said describes me perfectly. In fact I'd never even heard of Bambu labs until the morning that I bought my first printer, the Bambu labs a1. I just woke up, decided I wanted a 3D printer for some of my hobbies, searched "best 3d printer for beginners" and an hour or two later sprung for that one because I kept seeing it recommended, plus it was on sale. For what it's worth it's been fine, but had I known about the companies hostility toward the foss community I would've gotten something else just on principle.
