Hello all, I am considering on getting a 3D printer. I want to print some stuff for a project. I am relatively new to this. I need the slicer software to be compatible (preferably open source) with linux since that’s what I am using. I have only found the stuff from Prusa to be compatible but they are expensive. I have heard of ender 3 but it is the only os printer by creality and saw the repo is 3yo without updates.
Can I get some suggestions?
You don’t even need a Slicer that offers a profile for the printer. I have an obscure one and had to make a custom profile, but it works fine.
I personally would recommend Cura over Prusa. They both do the same and copy each other all the time, but Cura is simpler by default imo.
Yes, for a person with a bit of experience that is an easy task.
It’s a bit more daunting for a newbie who is asking the sort of basic questions OP is doing
