Thanks for sharing the knowledge:)
- Comment on What 3D printer should I buy? 2 weeks ago:
Also I feel confident Prusa will not try a rug-pull enshitification move in 6 months time after buying their printer, unlike certain other manufacturers (Bamboo)
- Comment on What software are you using for CAD/modeling? 4 weeks ago:
Default look n feel does feel a couple of decades outdated. But it can easily be customized to look look much more modern and comfortable.
Youtube tutorials on how to get started often begins with customizing the user interface before even starting the modeling tutorial. I recommend Deltahedra and Mangojelly on YouTube
- Comment on What software are you using for CAD/modeling? 4 weeks ago:
FreeCAD, and I recommend you give it a second try, while watching the excellent tutorials from Deltahedra and Mangojelly on YouTube. Lots of the jank can be avoided if you only know how, so the tutorials are extremely useful.
FreeCAD has gotten exponentially better with each release the last few years, and both active developers and funding/donations from users have increased exponentially. The future is bright. And unlike the “free” commercial programs, FreeCAD is immune to future rug-pulls and enshitification.

- Comment on PSA: Don't use nextcloud's auto upload on the android app as a backup 6 months ago:
Can attest that Folder Sync is excellent. I use it all day (in the background) for two-way sync (notes) and backup of photos videos etc
Though a small PSA on setting up:
I once set up a new share on a new phone with two-way sync, and the app decided to sync the (newer) empty directory to the server (i.e. delete everything) instead of pulling the files from the server to the phone.
Easy fix: Restore notes from backup (step 0: have backups in the first place), then do an initial 1-way sync from server to phone, then change the sync job to two-way.
