Spent a couple hours over the last few days trying to get Bambu Studio to work on Ubuntu 24 and haven’t figured it out yet. A couple hours does not include the additional hours required to build it.
I had a Prusa for several years before switching to Bambu. Can’t go wrong with either brand imo. Although I have blocked my Bambus and their slicer from communicating with the outside world.
Meh, the hassle of blocking the Bambu stuff is worth the print quality, reliability, and multicolor printing capabilities. I tried the Prusa MMU2S and ended up giving up. I had less than a 5% success rate with multicolor prints.
Edit: my phone keeps auto correcting Bambu to Bambi
I put together an original MMU for a customer back when it came out, I don’t think it ever worked. I might try an MMU3, they’ve apparently got it reliable, but I’ve been 3D printing since 2014 and haven’t really found much of a need for multicolor printing that I couldn’t do by snipping the filament and pushing different filament into the pinch rollers to make, like 2.5D signs or something.

Another reason I’m glad I ordered a Prusa; I’ve already been using PrusaSlicer for my old printer, so I know the toolchain is ready to go.

Sounds like you can go wrong with one of those brands.
