I hope so as well. It definitely isn’t tied to their release. I’ve escalated four times and have gotten progressively worse customer service each time. I’ve never had to repeat myself so much before someone would actually read what I was writing. That includes Creality’s notoriously awful service.
I’m not surprised. I’ve avoided Bambu like the plague due to their other issues with privacy and locking things down. I rolled the dice on Anycubic since they have a good Trustpilot score and it would be hard to be worse than what I’ve been put through with Elegoo. So far the Kobra S1 has been working pretty well for me.
