    First it was Raspberry Pi now Arduino. Is ESP32 all that’s left?

        It’s more expensive than what it is really worth years ago, among many other problems. It was a cheap and reliable programming platform when it was Raspberry Pi 1.

          That’s not enshittification, that’s just a price increase. I’d hardly say it’s the same as this change to arduino

            Raspberry pi was founded as a cheap accessible computer that schools with few resources could afford. $25 boards, or if you had big bucks $35. With the intention the price would stay like that with improving technology. They broke this model with the rpi4 and have only gone up in price.

                First sentence: agreed. The part after that, you could have done without. Be nice to people. Especially people who have less money.

                    If you stalk my account you’ll see I won’t always be nice, but I would never kick downwards. ;)

                    As I don’t kick downwards, I hope you find happiness in life.

      Isn’t Arduino more of a software framework and less about the chips themselves? Arduino can run on ESP32 and also on a huge array of ATmega mcus.

        I don’t actually know that! I have fiddled with esp32 a bit and was disappointed when Pi’s priced out most of the hobbyist market
