I have a Bambu A1, and yes it really is a great printer. The firmware BS is crossing a line though, and that company will not get another dollar from me. My next printer will be a Prusa or a Voron.

I just did some experimenting, and in duckduckgo.com at least, searches like this work quite well:

“Best CPU (site:lemm.ee OR site:lemmy.world OR site:lemmy.ca)”

Not exactly user friendly, but it’s a starting point. At least two ways forward:

1. A browser plugin with a config page allowing you to select/deselect your favourite instances, and make a bang operator to suit: e.g. “!lemmy”

2. Petition search engines to do this themselves.

Any advice on how to move a server over to a matrix/element based setup?

I have a feeling there will be resistance to change, because many of the core people there seem to be discord fans and are longtime users.
