Having a Creality Ender 3 Pro. Have upgraded the mainboard to a new Silent mainboard. Installed this Extroduer and also have a glass bed. I also purchased another glass bed to exchange the scratched one.

What should I do about my problem? Is my only solution to buy a CR-Touch Sensor? How does the sensor even work? Will it also scratch it when I am not careful enough or is it user friendly and fully automated?

I don't have any other bed except the glas one for now. Should I rather purchase a flexible sheet for the bed instead of a glas bed?

You can move the Z end stop switch up. This will make the home (z=0) position higher.

I only use the Printer with my Octoprint Raspberry PI. Do I need a display for this? (My Display/Interface is broken since many years so I shrugged and just continued using Octoprint)

Would this still be usable when I don't have a display and just use it with Octoprint?

No, on the left column of the printer there is the physical z switch, just lower your nozzle down as low as it will go and loosen the bolts on the switch and move it up till it just clicks. Since your display is broke your going to have to set the z index in goose. Or spend 30 bucks and buy a new display
