Picked a silicone baking mat over parchment paper for cookies and it went sideways fast

I decided to try a silicone mat for my chocolate chip cookies because I was tired of buying parchment rolls. Figured it would be more eco friendly and save money long term. But the cookies spread way too thin and came out greasy looking, not fluffy at all. After 3 batches I switched back to parchment and they came out perfect. Has anyone else had this problem with silicone mats ruining the texture of their cookies?

3 batches" you kept at it that long? I would have rage quit after the first one.

Hang on wait THREE whole batches?? Bro I wouldve thrown the whole hobby in the garbage after batch one lol. You must have the patience of a saint. I can barely handle my air fryer beeping at me twice.

Totally valid. I'd be making sourdough frisbees by now.
