    Bad take.

    It's not useful for everything but it does allow you to make some things that are otherwise not really feasible. And while I don't enjoy it, I think it's done good things for the hobbyist scene

        you're clearly some sort of ultralefty because i can't fathom thinking about this issue for more than like 15 seconds, let alone getting into an argument with strangers over it and saying inane shit like "hobby 3d printing is tool of oppression"

            i said inane, not insane. your point might be true (i don't think it is), but either way it's still a completely vapid and pointless argument to dedicate this much of your time to.

            3d printing as a technology is not, and probably never will be, solely for commercial use. most 3d printing hobbyists do not give a shit about their IP rights and share their models online for anyone to use.
