       3D printed junk is everywhere, recently on a festival they also tried to sell it as "handcrafted" stuff, even the banner in front of the stand was AI generatedPlease don't buy this crap and support real artists who put actual time in their productshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4dgA3U3sO8

       @stux I have been to "craft" markets on three continents now and there is a high concentration of the exact same products, though sometimes the colours are different. I'm pretty sure that unless you know the crafter makes their own stuff treat everything as essentially a drop ship

       @stux I agreeTo make real art, say a painting, the artist should slaughter a hog, and carefully select bristles from which brushes can be made; pigments can be gathered from rocks, plants and insects, etc etc

       @stux Yikes. I know that I live under a rock, but I had no idea that 3D Printing had devolved to this point. Bah.

       @stux  #d Printing has its uses. For instance I like to design useful  electronic items. I can design and print a small case or enclosure .  So something like what is shown in the picture becomes possible.

       @stux Those dragons cost like nothing on AliExpress and indeed 3D printers generate a lot of plastic waste! It's annoying.

       @stux as someone who picked up 3D printing, I don't think 3D printing inherently is the issue, but sellers who peddle 3D prints lying that they're handcrafted
