What is "Shade Auto Smooth" in Blender?
In Blender, there are basically two ways to "shade" a surface. Smooth shading is what we want for rounded surfaces, but "Shade flat" or "Shade sharp" is what we want for flat surfaces and sharp edges. Not long ago, Blender introduced "Shade Auto Smooth" which automatically smooths edges based on their angles. This results in the best of both worlds and saves a lot of time. You should almost always use "Shade Auto Smooth" in my opinion.
