X1 Carbon owner here. I've had absolutely zero issues with my printer and was not affected by the their recent fumble. I've had mine for over 6 months but under a year, & print most days out of the week. I love open source shit, but honestly, in my experience, if you want a set it and forget it, fantastic build quality & speed printer I'd recommend the X1 Carbon in a heartbeat. I've heard their slicer is a rip of Cura, I don't know much about that though, but it's worked very well for me. All's I'm saying is that not everyone is having a bad experience with them, but I also can't see the future. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
