Hello all, I am considering on getting a 3D printer. I want to print some stuff for a project. I am relatively new to this. I need the slicer software to be compatible (preferably open source) with linux since that’s what I am using. I have only found the stuff from Prusa to be compatible but they are expensive. I have heard of ender 3 but it is the only os printer by creality and saw the repo is 3yo without updates.
Can I get some suggestions?
I’d still totally recommend a used mk3s, they’re solid and simple to service, absolutely the way I went when I was in a place to start 3d printing again, their support is amazing and their knowledge base is a great reference. Stock they’re a proven machine, but they’re also a great platform for modding and there are so many mods out there.
I used mine to do all my voron parts last spring, still gets heavy usage, ended up bear modding, swapping the Rambo for a skr mini and using klipper earlier this year instead of going the 4 or 3.5 route.
