Oh my god, Snapmaker has released a beta firmware for the 2.0 series that has integrated Octoprint protocol emulation. Since the beginning they have insisted on their proprietary protocol, which has tied the users to their proprietary slicer, Luban. Luban again is a 3-in-1 3D print slicer-CNC carving-Lasering suite that is equally bad at all three, especially in 3D printing.
They have also bastardised Orca with their own horse shit additions and made it work with their latest models, but since Octo is supported, I can hopefully switch to vanilla Orca.
If it works, I'm going to charter a ship, find the exact spot of the Mariana trench and drop Snapmaker Luban in there, encased in concrete.
