Printables.com - allow archival of models
Archive a model to remove it from search and profile view, make this a toggle (as AI or Political content), or show an archived banner on the preview & model page.
Model remains accessible through hard link, collections, and any other existing references.
What does this achieve?
Let's say there are 3 versions of a mobile stand, each an iteration on the previous version, making those obsolete.
As a creator, one has the option to remove those older models, or add a note to title or description, linking to the new model.
This is a lot of busy work and each creator can handle this differently, making it an inconsistent experience for the user.
I don't know if site improvements are discussed here, but I thought this would be a considerable improvement for everyone using the site.
Thanks for your consideration and happy holidays!
RE:
Or you can create a github repo for your models, publish just a latest and then have a link in the description that points to github and previous versions.
