I was only trying to ask whether supporting Ruida controllers was something he had thought about. I’m not really doing a survey to learn whether other people active here are interested in open source support for Ruida controllers. Even if I choose to use proprietary software to drive it from time to time, if there’s no open source alternative, it’s disposable and therefore a toy not a tool. But I consider all hardware that cannot be driven except by proprietary software as disposable. I understand that not everyone here has the same interest I do in open source. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.When I wrote the first open source scanner driver for Linux, including pouring over and annotating pages and pages of hex dumps from a SCSI analyzer to understand how it worked, there were proprietary drivers for Windows, so by the same logic there was no need for me to duplicate support.

This is not an attack on LightBurn, I am fairly confident it’s me. I installed Windows on my Mac via Parallels and I have installed LaserGBRL.

I have been trying to watch the videos, but so far I have been getting frustrated. I have found settings harder to figure out on LightBurn. So, I am assuming and hoping I am not using it properly. I can’t understand this, as I know LightBurn is very popular. However, what I have found is that I am getting much-much better results on LaserGRBL. So, as a paid product, I expected to get much better results from LightBurn instead of LaserGRBL. LightBurn looks more polished and better UI etc. I feel the cost of LightBurn is reasonable, so I don’t have an issue with the price. I also found LaserGRBL, the free Windows based product. So, I was pleased about finding LightBurn as it has a Mac version. I am also a Mac user, and I don’t have a Windows computer. And I am hoping I am doing something wrong or not got it setup properly.
