    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. ;)
