Comments and Reviews
It is by far the best slicer in recent years. It is truly open source and open to the community (unlike others that only post part of the code but user suggestions are not accepted), with a modern and user-friendly interface for beginners, yet powerful for advanced users and extremely fast. It has all the features of other slicers and many of its own unique features. There is a nightly build that is compiled daily with improvements and new features for those who want to try the latest version, and pull requests are even compiled to test features before they are accepted.
I came from Cura, Slic3r, Prusa and Superslicer, but this is definitely the better one for me. My printing results are way better than before. Orca has nearly all you want plus one thing that makes it stand out, directional change in overhang perimeters per layer. This makes overhangs far stiffer and less prone to falling. Also you can paint your seams, not just lineary or aligned, you decide, just as the custom supports. Tremendous slicer.
