I do mostly functional but the consumerism is also fun because there’s a magnitude less Amazon and sludge oil powered shipping from China. The filament is biodegradable and made from corn.
For example I printed an Affe mit Schädel for my desk and it makes me very happy. I know it’s stupid but I’ve wanted one on my desk for over 30 years for reasons.
As far as fun goes, unless you like tinkering it’s just consumerism with extra steps. Don’t buy one for funsies.
But for functional prints and being able to replace small parts and bring your ideas to life, they’re great.

Biodegradable but only in very specific conditions! Make sure to properly recycle PLA. Recycling Fabrik is great.
