Can we ban makerworld links here? They have a low limit on downloads without registering an account, a very shitty default license many use without the reading and generally don't hide they want to run that thing as a walled garden.

Clear cookies and site data (Firefox) then refresh the page.

You can continue to download until you hit the limit again, rinse and repeat.

Only way I managed was chrome in porn mode via VPN.

Went digging a bit after that and found a statement from them that anonymous download issues are intentional to drive people to make accounts.

I use Schizofox, perhaps some of those tweaks assist. I've got a static IP at home too, maybe just lucky?

That shouldn’t be the case in the first place. Printables is where it’s at.
