Idk what Pixel phone you’re buying that you’d save +1000$. You can get a pixel 6 pro for like 550$.

This ended up being the issue, I leveled the bed with the hot end and bed both heated before I started the print in the picture, so I’m not sure how it got so bad, so I guess I did a really bad job. I also messed with the retraction and got it in line and will have to more finely tune it later

That probably explains it, I didn’t change it and I remember hearing direct drive printers need smaller retraction amounts so I’ll check that out

When its just extruding like 100mm just as a test its fine, but I haven’t done it yet with when it retracts so it could totally be that.

I totally agree, I’ve found Lemmy to also be quite boring, my feed consistents of 90% memes and politics. With nearly nothing about my more niche hobbies.

I personally think Brave Search doesn’t get enough love. It’s surprisingly great, search results are fast and always get me relevant sites, and the AI summarizer is really good.
