Hi everyone!

I'm curious to know which slicer you guys use.

I've been using the Creality slicer, but it seems like it pretty consistently crashes, and I've tried Cura but the print seemed stringy despite using the same settings.

How are Orca or Prusa?

I used Cura for a few years, then I tried Prusa and my print quality dramatically improved for reasons I have not figured out.

Haha this is exactly my experience. Pusaslicer/superslicer just make such better prints for me and I have no idea why. Despite putting so much effort into my Cura settings, Prusa just prints better out of the box with so little effort.
