The only decent thing to come out of the Raspberry project after the original model was the Zero.
This is just such a massively dumb comment.
The stuff coming from the group is all pretty good and relatively well priced. This includes the various upgrades and different form factors. It has some shortcomings as described; literally every other SBC also has some shortcomings too. Like the Orange Pi you mention, which might as well be alien technology given the quality of the documentation and code required to get it running.
- gvand 8y agoI doubt you will read this now, just wanted to say that I'll remember this comment every time my raspi2 resets due to overheating :D Also, with "relatively well priced" do you mean "overpriced"? And with documentation you mean the stuff the users wrote on the forum (ok, they did at least try, but the real useful stuff is from the forum)? Come on, while I realize that other SBCs have a lot of issues too, let's not forget that every iteration of the Raspberry had its issues, some of them being the usual issues found in boards from other vendors too. If you need an example of a well built board, well documented and with amazing price, check out the CHIP from the now defunct NextThing Co. Best SBC I've ever had, for a fraction of the cost of a Raspberry. And if you need something that you can still buy, look into the Asus Tinkerboard. Yep, it costs more but it feels like alien technology that works compared to the raspberry 3F+ (... or was it the 3D-? Hard to tell, when they are a rehash of the same stuff, even worse than the Arduino).
