If you, yourself are going to make modifications and want changed tracked and reversable, use github.
If you just want to upload old projects that you have for other people to use and modify, use Printables.
On Printables you can still upload the source files, photos, stl’s, STEP files, everything needed. It just isn’t a change-tracking and release managing system.

Dont use thingiverse. it is a dying unmaintained platform.

Then what platform is better?
Printables?

yes

Thingiverse has a better (maybe just bigger) library but Printables has a better interface. I use both and think it always nice to host source files on GitHub.

I see after ultimaker acquired MakerBot, it’s slowly improving
Spider89@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Once it gets better, I may try it.

It’s being heavily worked on since ultimaker bought it.
I prefer it to printables now, since prusa sold out and started allowing proprietary designs.
