It is not an Ender 3...but also not a Switchwire..
check out Fluidd

Kudos to the incredible team behind Mainsail for their outstanding work! 3D-priting can sometimes suck so badly.. that having such a great piece of software makes it so much enjoyable. Thank You!!!
Perfect timing to thank to the team behind project Fluidd as well. After some time of inactivity, project has recovered and releasing regular updates, giving us awesome alternative the Mainsail UI.

Downloaded klipper 2 hrs ago need help
My recommendation if your just setting up: do yourself a huge favor and do not use OctoPrint. Instead I recommend using Mainsail of Fluidd. They’re both great web interfaces designed specifically for Klipper. Very fast, lightweight and take advantage of all available Klipper functions. Octoprint is very resource hungry.

First time Klipper user here, Printing is EXTREMELY slow
In the past I used OctoPrint, but now I moved to Mainsail, because it has a better ui and some plugins are directly build in. You can install Kiauh and use it to install Mainsail or Fluidd next to OctoPrint.

Why does my ender 3 do this…has done it since I installed the bltouch, if I don’t tap it, it just stays there flashing and never prints…please help.. ender 3 with Btt skr mini v3 main board
You will need a raspberry pi, or an old laptop/pc that is x64. If raspberry pi, you can use either the mailsail or fluidd install image that will configure the entire ui and set up the basics for installing klipper. I’ll link to some videos that can help you if using a pi. Otherwise if using a desktop you will need to install Debian Linux and set up a user named pi and then use a project called kiauh which will allow you to configure mainsail or fluidd.

Print speed limited
Personally I prefer Mainsail. But Fluidd is also popular.

Any way to lock flow option on fluidd UI?
Good catch! I've created an issue in GitHub and, once I get consensus on an approach, I'll look at fixing this

Windows updated 8 hours into a print. I’m gonna cry.
Klipper is awesome and once it’s installed and up and running I can control my printer via my LAN network and upload STL’s and control the printer using the Mainsail Web interface. https://docs.mainsail.xyz

Successor to JyersM firmware?
I prefer Klipper. It requires another computer (such as a raspberry pi) but it is so much easier to modify and make changes. It also has built in leveling functions and other great benefits. https://docs.mainsail.xyz/ https://www.klipper3d.org/

Got a Ender 3 S1 Plus (300x300) for cheap. Leveled the bed manually, but realized that all 4 corners are much higher (0.412) than the middle. Is this bed doomed?

Help me build a Dream Printer... what would you do?
Convert that thing to a corexy via Mercury One, throw a Stealthburner on it, and get yourself a raspberry pi to run Klipper/Mainsail.
