I have been a long time Prusaslicer user but lately I’m running into a limitation. Hole XY size compensation is a big missing feature which I have seen in Cura. Also Cura handles lithophanes really well.

I do not like the UI of Cura but do like the Prusaslicer one.

What slicer do you prefer?

    I personally started out with Cura and it was rather good until I moved over to Linux full time. After an update, I hit this issue. Cura’s performance was also just terrible on my system under Linux. I started looking at other options and also replaced my printer shortly afterwards.

    I bought a Creality K1C and that sort of shepherded me into CrealityPrint. And it was fine, but as Creality has moved to enshitify their offerings, I decided to move away from that and just went upstream on it to Orca. And it’s also fine. I do have issues with the camera in my current printer (the K1C) and that is a known issue. Creality did some non-standard fuckery with their camera streaming, so the problem really is on the hardware side. I also find myself struggling to find settings, but I think that’s a “me” problem and just a matter of learning how Orca organizes things. I also find Orca’s automatic brim setting is kinda overzealous about adding a brim to things. But overall, I’m happy with it.
