There are a fair number of third party boards based on the RP2040/RP2050 silicon. Even esphome can target it even though it originally targeted the esp32.
The silicon itself is pretty nice although the original had done problems with deep sleep.
Are they as well supported? There are lots of SBCs out there but if they are only supported by vendor kernels and have no documentation then i’d rather pay the Pi premium.
ETA: that said for a lot of stuff microcontrollers are a much better bet.
They are pretty good at summarisation. If I want to catch up with a long review thread on a patch series I’ve just started looking at I occasionally ask Gemini to outline the development so far and the remaining issues.
Now I’ve read the article it’s unnamed industry analysts and it’s written by an AI. For all I know the AI has hallucinated the number.
I assume microcontrollers. Most of those are invisible to consumers.
Imgur has been offline in the UK since the original investigation. Do they even want to be in the UK market?
