    Their software is somewhat open too, and you can root it unlike some other printers

      If it wasn’t open, they would be violating the licences of the FOSS projects it’s forked from. Their firmwares inherit GPLv3 from Marlin, and CrealityPrint inherits AGPLv3 from slic3r (via Orca Slicer, Bambu Studio and PrusaSlicer).

        There are some companies that violate GPL. Guess what happens to them? Nothing (unfortunately).
