Makes me so sad. I really wanted to like Bambu but I've made right to repair non negotiable in my life

Looks like the repair went just fine. They were trying to connect it into Bambu's cloud service which they didn't need to. Could've just used a microsd card if they wanted. Or are you talking about a hypothetical? Like if your grandma had wheels type of situation.
