Until now i have believed that the most toxic part about UV-resin printing was the resin, but i was wrong! It is Chitubox (resin is still pretty nasty so wear your PPE). You might think that I'm salty about something, and that's correct, let me explain.
TL;DR: Chitubox is preventing 3rd party slicers to work with their printers since the 1.9 version, limiting how you can use a product you bought. They are also overcharging a lot for their "Pro" version slicer.
Chitubox are using their power as a sole supplier to multiple printer manufacturer to screw Us, the end consumers, over.
Since Chitubox 1.9 and the associated firmware update, they are preventing the printers from using files prepared 3rd party slicers. If you have an older printer with an older firmware you can still keep slicing with 3rd party software, but if you upgrade to 1.9 and let them update your firmware Chitubox will lock your printer down preventing you from using it as you see fit.
