Where does this claim in the title come from?
>IOTA: Cannot be used for IoT
The author has this caption under the screenshot of the official documentation:
>They also write that you can’t use IOTA for IoT
...but they clearly don't write that, I can read it in the screenshot. They say it doesn't work on smaller IoT devices, and that this will change when you can compile from source. So that's out as a source of this claim.
The other source:
>I upgraded to this machine after reading on the Discord chat that people were unable to stay in sync with less powerful hardware [citation needed]
That's the requirements for running the Wallet GUI on Linux, not IOTA core (which as the author mentions, has been implemented in python and JS).
Nuance matters, concluding "IOTA cannot be used on Internet-of-Things devices" at the end seems like an oversimplification; especially for an article that seems overly-specific when it's trying to make IOTA seem complicated (Is setting up an AWS instance of Ubuntu for your Windows host a concern for EVERY user of IOTA? Is it really important that you set up your firewall incorrectly?).
Another strange omission is not mentioning IOTA as being in beta, which is the reason it can't run on smaller devices:
