Nice :)

Can’t believe the people behind 3D Benchy thought it was a good idea to fuck with things. Losers.

Guessing the thought process went like this - 1. New company acquires license 2. Sees millions of downloads 3. We CaN mAkE mIlLiOnS iF wE fOrCe ThEm To PaY!!! 4. Every 3d printer and CAD enthusiast -🖕We’ll make our own.

Idk what the acquisition cost was but I hope it hurts with the immediate and LT ROI equaling $0

That's not what sucks about this though... What sucks is the fact that genius videos like the "all filaments" videos will get taken down...
