yesterday my new nozzles arrived and i tried 0.8 Nozzles for the first time. damn that was a hassle!

Its not much, but its honest work! :D

i think i upload more pictures later because i really would appreciate tips / help (for example about the bridging) also the first thing i need to change is the infill, because this one is waaaay heavier than my bigger calicats on 0.4 mm nozzles!

EDIT: changed the picture.

So there's a setting called retraction that may help you now that you have a much bigger nozzle size, what retraction basically does is, when the nozzlehead is moving , it pulls the filament back in a millimeter or two so that its not just leaking out of the edge of the nozzle, creating these wispy parts, I beleive most slicers should have an option for retraction, but it may be called like auto retract, or forward retract or something, its been a minute

Edit 2: on a second look I also noticed your overhangs are drippy, this indicates a bit too much heat, try lowering your print temp a little bit and printing some overhangs, this may help with the spaghetti too
