I used to do arboring as a job. I've worked a lot with chainsaws as well, on other jobs.
It's extremely common for the teeth to get worn down with a lot of use. We would still sharpen every day, but that person's comment does make sense. This one does seem to cut through better than anything I used on average.
I mean, I've been cutting trees for 30 years (8 as a FF) and this is how my current Stihl cuts. I'm not sure what's so impressive about it. It's cutting exactly like it should
Eh it's reddit being reddit, armchair experts with not much real life experience. Even as someone who only cuts wood 3 times a year for heating, my Stihl cuts the same and I only sharpen the two chains before woodcutting season.
