Comment on MyMiniFactory has acquired Thingiverse

I’m in a tricky position here.

I use MyMiniFactory, have backed several frontiers things and am a member of a few tribes.

I also use Thingiverse a lot.

And while I certainly don’t want to pay for AI content, I don’t mind that much if it’s free. There have been times that I’ve looked for something for DnD and the only option was AI generated. And honestly, I’d much rather have that than no model at all.

There are LOTS of other places STLs are hosted. The dregs will move to new hosts.

  Yah thingiverse kind of fell off of my radar over the years with printables.

Could you explain to me what the issue here is and how does AI enter into it?

  In the linked article, MyMiniFactory say that they’ll ultimately be removing AI content from Thingiverse.

    Oh. I thought I read the whole article. How did I miss that part.
    
    Well, thanks.
