Lemmy in general has been much more pleasant, but we will have to be proactive to keep it this way
- Agreed so here's my reply to keep active user numbers high...
- Agreed, much more pleasant here, though it felt empty for a while. Now it's starting to feel active while still being pleasant. A big improvement over reddit.

My favorite was when some redditor told me that "maybe 3d printing isn't for you" after I expressed some concerns. Pissed me off so much I ended up printing over 200 miniatures (so far).
- How much does it cost you for 3d printing a miniature?
  
  I use cheap resin, it's roughly a dollar or two per mini. Gloves and supplies are cheap but add up over time. I haven't calculated it with any precision, but it's comfortably cheaper than buying them, and I can make small modifications to them.

This is why we don’t want Reddit to completely die - we need all the A-holes to stay there and wallow in their misery.
- You know, I never thought of that. Those who are here are like refugees who ran away from insanity and wants to create a new world of normality.
- The Eternal September of social media.

Have you tried leveling the community?
- Just calibrated the communities e-steps and y’all, your extrusion is looking great.

Just wait for the 9,000th repetition of the same three posts and it'll start getting sassy.
"Your print problems are almost certainly because you haven't properly trammed and offset the bed."
"PLA itself is foodsafe, filament additives may not be, and print texture is a bacteria farm."
"Consensus starter printer in each price bracket right now is..." (actually not as obvious as it has been, some Ender3 variant and Bambu P1P? That one isn't as tired as the other two because it changes over time.)

IDK, I remember most of the 3d printing subs being pretty chill.
Anyhow, welcome to the community!
