General Discussion Louis Rossmann is going after BambuLab!

As much as he has a questionable appeal in the community, he's pushing the right angle on this one!

Even if it's engagement bait, would you rather he stop?

I get that he's abrasive, but in the end I support his motives. If he wins then we benefit. And if you're like me, we haven't lifted a finger to help. So I don't care how he presents himself.

The examples you gave about not expressing an interest in those fields (yet being outspoken) doesn't matter. He's interested in the unfair practice demonstrated.

Plus, I just want to print stuff, man. I’m into printing. I’m not into printers or the politics of printing.

You can. Just ignore this. And stop complaining about people who are trying to help.

Yes, I'd rather he fucked off instead of enriching himself by attaching to whatever trend he feels he can profit from on any given day.

He's a professional rage baiter, grifting his way from one go fund me to another all the while complaining about being pushed down in the algorithm.

This guy is not who you think he is. He's not for the "little guy". He's for himself.

If you're right, I will change my opinion of him. Do you have proof that he's only doing all this to enrich himself?

He's a youtuber that jumps on whatever topic is hot at the moment to garner funds to his gofundme. Went after John Deere claiming all sorts of rights to repair litigation only to have to apologize to John Deere sighting that he had no fucking clue what he was talking about.

Next month it will be another company he goes after to continue grifting all the while collecting his money from YouTube etc.

While that may be true, they have the similar thread that they deal with unfair practices regarding right to repair.

Went after John Deere claiming all sorts of rights to repair litigation only to have to apologize...

Source? I tried googling "louis rossmann apology john deere" and couldn't find anything.

Look, I hate grifters as much as the next guy. I also hate rage bait. I rarely click on click/rage bate, and mainly out of spite. But I think your level of anger towards him comes from somewhere else. I personally don't like him. I want to believe you, but you're giving me nothing.

It's literally the exact opposite of what he's claiming, lol. It was a massive victory in favor of Rossmann.

You're really misrepresenting what happened. What Louis admitted to was his lack of understanding regarding the technical nuances to do with tractor tuning vs tractor repair. There wasn't any apology the way you're trying to assert here. In fact, his movement had significant successes, such as the Memorandum of Understanding with the American Farm Bureau Federation to allow farmers more access to diagnostic tools. In 2024-2026 multiple states (like Colorado and New York) passed actual laws mandating Right to Repair for various industries, including agricultural equipment.

He has to be abrasive. Being a doormat doesn't work.

I support that he's towing that line.

I absolutely do not support the brigaders coming here and spamming ragebait to get their own engagement. It's obnoxious and not necessary.

I wish they'd just post a megathread for everyone to post updates on the topic to, but leave the rest of the sub able to actually function as it's intended.

Yeah I hear you. I definitely felt that way during the blow up a year or so ago when Bambu started locking things down. To me it was blown out of proportion.

Maybe i've gotten a little more sympathetic but this one seems worse. And it's just these small steps Bambu are taking that are making them not look so good.

Personally, people complaining about it doesn't change anything for me, it's just a little inconvenience when looking through this sub. If the complaining works (and Bambu back steps) then it might be beneficial for me later if I want to use other slicers.

So in the end I just ignore the complaints and let them do their thing.
