What is causing these layer lines? I'm assuming it has something to do with the curved part, as it starts around the same height as them. Is there a way I can avoid these? (programming.dev)

It’s difficult to tell height and things lining up in the photo - if it’s all over the part it might also be feeding issues or ringing. If it’s ringing check how sturdy the platform your printer sits on is or decrease printing speed. What machine are you using with what settings?
