Not just pet hair, but pet dander. Pets in general just add a bunch of stuff to the air that likes to land on top of uncovered rolls of filament; I run a repair shop for 3D printers, and after some surveying, I've found that people with pets experience clogs much more often.
0.2mm nozzles are like 25% of the area that a 0.4 has. That means every, little, potential bit of problem can, and WILL clog the nozzle.
Additionally, the 0.2mm nozzles are so tiny, there's not likely a good way to clean them, as most needles are 0.3mm or larger.
Yeah that makes sense.
I guess I've avoided that since I printed and made a thing that wipes the filament as it goes into the printer, I suppose.
Those are surprisingly effective to be quite honest. You never know what kinds of systems people have though, so you gotta kinda cover it all.
They really need to stop selling Ender 3s, 3 pro, 3 v2, and other 'prior generation' Enders. The 3v3 is the one to get now, and doesn't have near the learning curve of the old ones.
People should just stop buying enders.
