I found out Thangs locks print files and comments behind an account when I tried downloading my own files from a different device. I’ve decided to leave the platform and going back to my trusty old Thingiverse. I tried to find something new and better but maybe Thingiverse is just the place to be for now. New links below.
Have you tried Printables? Thingiverse’s interface is just horrible and I only go there as the last option.
printables is ok but i always find 1/20 of the amount of models of thingiverse and some things are straight up missing
Printables is also free of ads… Does Thingiverse still have ads?
Personally I stopped using printables after they allowed proprietary designs.
After ultimaker acquired thingiverse via makerbot i feel the website is slowly improving

What’s the point of “leaving” or not using a platform like Thingiverse? Surely using Thingiverse and Thangs (and any other conceivable source) is objectively better than… just using a single platform, isn’t it?!
Are you sure it’s not a you doing something shady problem? Suspended on printables, locked on thangs… I dunno it sounds kinda sus when none of us have issues. Perhaps it’s spamming your cube…
I was able to find the thangs one. the printables one… idunno. can’t find it.
