I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    People are still buying HP printers because there are no alternatives. In my experience Epson is the worst. The are all the same, and we have no alternative other than letting them fuck with us. And they know it.

      Brother has been amazing. Good products, manufacturer support for all operating systems, no subscription bullshit.

      No, I think that’s blatantly wrong.

      Idk if Brother is the best no-bullshit alternative, but it’s definitely supposed to be a no-bullshit alternative.

      Even if we had no other alternative, we could crowd-fund one.

      I’ve never used on owned an Epson but I’ve been hearing wonders about the EcoTank line.

      Affordable, lasting, dirt cheap ink, user replaceable printing heads, also cheap, and linux friendly.
