I feel your pain. I bought the Ender 3 S1 when they were first released and the bed was severely warped. I can get it to print, but only part of the plate is really usable. The time investment for every print isn’t worth it for me so I don’t use it anymore. Luckily, I have other printers.
Not a dickhead at all. I hate when YouTubers do this and actively avoid videos that do it. Regardless of the quality of the content, the practice is a red flag for clickbait and untrustworthiness.
