I don't know about that. There is still a lot of work being done in open source/hardware. Then again, these people are "the experts".

From the post:

>It’s hard to overstate the impact desktop 3D printing has had on the making and hacking scene. It drastically lowered the barrier for many to create their own projects, and much of the prototyping and distribution of parts and tools that we see today simply wouldn’t be possible via traditional means. What might not be obvious to those new to the game is that much of what we take for granted today in the 3D printing world has its origins in open source hardware (OSHW). Unfortunately, [Josef Prusa] has reason to believe that this aspect of desktop 3D printing is dead.

Yup, but this was before XTreeGold or even XTreePro existed. Plain old XTree was all we had back then. It was a game changer back in the 80s.

I used all. They all were such good utility. My first boss used to say “you playing tree” like it was a game. I think pro integrated zip into the interface. That was shit hot.
