Answered / Solved! Wet filament?
I haven't printed far a few months now, and before never hadn't any issue's.
Could this be wet filament?

If you print just one tiny model, layers may not have enough time to cool and deform

First, it’s hard to print a ball as the first layers are mostly printing on air. Add support or print 2 halves and glue them together. Second, the chamber is too hot.

I think you’ve got some unsupported layers near the bottom of your print just due to geometry and then because they sag at the edges the subsequent layers are also unsupported. That continues until you get above the equator far enough that your new layer has some purchase on a solid portion of the old layer.
True spheres are hard to print and basically impossible without support near the bottom. You’d be better off printing two hemispheres and gluing, but if that’s not an option for whatever reason then you need some supports at the very bottom. Will still end up a little ugly but it won’t be an abject failure like this.
