OG paper for me but plenty of others use metal filters

I flip-flop between metal and paper. Depends on how oily I want the coffee. It's just another variable to play with. I got two cheap ones for ~£8, one is a fine mesh, one is a less-fine mesh. I use the finer one because the other ended up in the bin by accident (it's so easy to lose them, especially when you're used to paper filters).

Well after deliberating I now have an Aeropress and waiting for some beans from YB. I already have a porlex mini somehow (without realising if it was any good). Making do with supermarket ground at the moment but already the coffee is infinitely better than my previous efforts and probably as good as my terrible palate can detect. We shall see.
For the aeropress does anyone use a metal filter and if so what sort?
