I like my glass measuring cups but the printing on them has really disappeared over time. Does anyone have a measuring cup that they love?

Anchor Hocking Batter Bowl, 2 Quart Glass Mixing Bowl with embossed lines.
If this is too big then Anchor Hocking Triple Pour Glass Measuring Cup, 8 Oz Measuring Glass.
These are great options… I have both. (Allthough toss the plastic lid on the second one. It’s garbage.)
But buy these products anywhere other than Amazon. Bezos was there at the Trump inauguration along with all the other technofascist leaders. And even if you don’t care about that, Amazon is terrible in so many other ways.
Cheap solution… Classico pasta sauce used to have measurements embossed (Is that the right word for glass?) on the side of the jars. My jars are kinda old, but it looks like they probably still do that but maybe only on certain sizes. The measurement lines and labels are a raised area that’s functionally part of the glass. I’ve been using them for years and it should be nearly impossible for the measurement lines to wear or fade in any meaningful way.
Other brands of pasta sauce do this too, the Aldi brand definitely used to, looking online it seems relatively common. You can also just buy glass jars with embossed measurements on them, but it’s cheaper to buy the pasta sauce jars and then you also have the bonus of having pasta sauce.
Get measuring cups that etch the markings into the glass/pyrex instead of being painted on. You can even do the etching yourself if you’re comfortable enough handling the acid.
Since we’re in the US, I saw this one from Target:
I can’t speak for its sturdiness and it doesn’t have 1/4 marks but with the straight sides you could eyeball it. It’s soda-lime glass, so you can boil in the microwave and wash in the dishwasher.
Just an option.
Boycott Target. They were one of the first companies to fold to the Trump regime.
