Regular Sudoku
Slow-Thermo
(O) Bulbs ≤ Tips ( I )
Digits mustn't decrease along thermometers from bulb to tip.
...Digits may therefore repeat along thermometers.
Flows may merge or diverge, but must always end at a given tip.
In all circumstances, flow must be determined.
Colours are merely aesthetic and not part of the puzzle.
Off-grid lines are not part of the puzzle, nor aesthetic.
For clarity, diamonds mark multi-tips.

Solution code: Row 1 from left to right

Super fun! Seems like 16% of people couldn't determine the flow :)

@pinknickels Watch this space. Swaroop is applying his very capable brain to the problem at this very moment. Hopefully Penpa is bouncing back in a big way.

I'd like to solve this, but penpa is so dreadful to use.
