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.

They also have one of the best reward programs for designers, and creating an account isn't difficult; I really don't see how this is an issue where links should be banned.

Plus this post isn't even a makerworld link, it's a hackaday link, so a URL filter wouldn't have done anything in this case anyways.
