Can we ban makerworld links here? They have a low limit on downloads without registering an account, a very shitty default license many use without the reading and generally don't hide they want to run that thing as a walled garden.

They also have one of the best reward programs for designers, and creating an account isn't difficult; I really don't see how this is an issue where links should be banned.

Plus this post isn't even a makerworld link, it's a hackaday link, so a URL filter wouldn't have done anything in this case anyways.

Clear cookies and site data (Firefox) then refresh the page.

You can continue to download until you hit the limit again, rinse and repeat.

That shouldn’t be the case in the first place. Printables is where it’s at.

Seeing that their latest printer is closed source, I'm afraid they'll make some changes to their website too...

Only way I managed was chrome in porn mode via VPN.

Went digging a bit after that and found a statement from them that anonymous download issues are intentional to drive people to make accounts.

I use Schizofox, perhaps some of those tweaks assist. I've got a static IP at home too, maybe just lucky?

oh THAT’S why I can’t download anything. But even with an account, I easily hit the download limit :(
