    You know why all of the printer companies are so shitty? It’s because they’re in the business of selling printers. That’s why they break and cost so much to maintain. You know why the sewing machine company sells printers that work? Because they accidentally let some of their sewing machine engineers make printers.

      Yeah, until the printer engineers took over from the sewing machine engineers in around 2020. Even Brother is evil now, rolling out firmware updates that render third party toner useless or do even more evil shenanigans via firmware:

      I don’t think there’s a good brand left these days, Brother was the last bastion of “not shitty” and now they, too, were enshittified.
