I’ve been a fan of DIY projects myself since I can have shit without actually spending a dime on boojee shit but now it appears capitalism is ruining it from PC’s, to reducing parts available to be used, to fake DIY vids to keep money, and good old copyfraud.

What do ya’ll think?

      Agree with all that. The more companies do to stop consumers repairing their products or using their parts/software to build new things, the more it will force ordinary people to look for solutions and to work together. I can’t wait to be able to build my own printer. So far as I know you can get quite close but the tech for the finer, inkier end of things is all closed off. Hopefully somebody works out a solution to that soon. As you say, a renaissance spirit might open that up.
