Apart from blow up printers, the one scariest thing for me about a slicer is losing settings. You spend hours getting your printer dialed in, specific profiles per material and then…
You update your slicer software and it all goes away. I have now learned Cura does this. And does this a lot. Forum posts abound about it. Friends recommend I switch to Prusa because it happened to them. Unfortunately too late for me to write down my old settings, and they’re apparently not in the ~/.config/cura folder anymore. Nice.
Big recommend to just jump straight to OrcaSlicer. It has Bambu Studio’s much-improved-over-PrusaSlicer UI but with features ported in from PrusaSlicer and SuperSlicer and compatibility with non-Bambu printers.
This is the way. It integrates so nicely with klipper as well. I’ve been a slicer switcher for a long time, but this is definitely my home for a while.

FWIW, prusaslicer can also upload and print. The setting to enable it is a bit hidden though… (it’s in printer settings)

Someone else I trust recommended this, too. Thank you.
