Reviewers without Conflict of Interest? (lemmy.today)

Are there any reviewers on YouTube/Rumble/etc. or independent blogs that don't post affiliate links, aren't sponsored by the printer company, or had one sent out by the company? Those to me all seem like a conflict of interest.

Yes people need to make money, I'm not blind to that, but they can advertise other things that aren't a direct conflict of interest.

I'm looking to get my first printer and would like to get info from an unbiased source. I just don't know enough to weed through the million 3D printer channels.

The Sovol SV06 Ace seems nice with little research as it is large enough to print the project I have in mind and uses open source firmware (Klipper) which is a must for me.

She certainly is matter of fact, almost to the point of boring haha. I appreciate these types of reviews as everything looks to be on an even playing field. She was sponsored by Sovol on her Sovol review which makes me wonder if anything was fluffed up to sound better
