> they do too much rage baits these days

Yeah, I agree but given the state of YouTube and the fact GN has an actual office, lab and employees, I also understand why they have no choice but to the play the game at least a bit. YouTube has repeatedly cut the rev rates to the point that even fairly large channels are still under pressure if they have meaningful recurring expenses.

Basically, I just skip the rage bait and watch the good stuff. I also love that GN still publishes print articles, which has essentially zero upside for them.

Better to report on reality than to report positively. TV isn’t always about entertainment, after all!

GN aren't the rage baiters. It's the companies that are handing this content to them on a silver platter that are. Steve and team have done excellent work over the years. Have things turned more directed at the enshittification? Of course, that's what they're reporting on. He's been iced out of pre-reviews for ending up on these corporate naughty lists plenty of times. But Steve is at least saying it out loud and as it is. Just look at the DRAM cartel v2 and AMD going against their own corporate & political donations policies. Sorry, but Steve isn't the rage baiter in this story.

It's really hard to recommend Prusa for the average person when non-enclosed printers go for 1k usd and multifilament is >2k, while creality and bambu go for 700 for multifilament, and much cheaper for single filament.

I'm not saying is the wrong thing, but it's the same reason casual users look at framework and balk at prices.
