Ender 3 V3 source code

[NordicPyro]

Apparently only precompiled binaries are downloadable at the moment. Would be nice if we had access to the source code.

this model does not support "open source"<
Seems somebody in China has real problems with understanding the GPL

[ShixinSun]

They not only have problems understanding open source and its licenses, but also how software development works in general.

When I asked for the current source code for the Ender 3 S1, I got this answer.

Just imagine somebody would explain the usage of github to them.

Or is there a special plan for which they have to pay per commit????

[CalDymos]

They always delete the source code after compiling! ;-)

Quote Creality Report:

Dear Customer

Thank you for contacting Creality customer support.

We don’t have more open source files, only the most basic ones, because everything is modified on the most basic files.

Thank you!

Hard that the Chinese education system fails to give them the ability to read the GPL.

With this statement (it's modified but not open source) they say clealy: We don't care about open source, licences and law.

My only conclusion after 4 years of buying creality products: Never again Creality, the lawless company.

@CrealityTech when?

Hi,

I think you can share the source of this printer now ?

Best Regards

I see so many posts about Creality violating license agreements, but what can we do to enforce this?
Does sb. know if platforms like

• https://sfconservancy.org/
• https://www.fsf.org

have already been contacted? Are those the correct ones to approach in this regard?

Can sb. recommend other platforms/institutions we can approach?
Doe anyone have experience with such cases?

Kind regards!
