For a raspberry pi which is unlikely to be plugged into a monitor it seems like a better gui for most usecases would be a simple webserver.

- badsectoracula 8y agoRaspberry Pi was made from the beginning to be used as a cheap desktop computer that people can play around with and students can buy with their own money, pretty much like the BBC micros and ZX Spectrums in the 80s. From day one it came with a full Linux desktop system and was meant to be used by itself as a proper computer.
- soneil 8y agoIt's worth remembering the core mission for the Pi was to be an affordable educational computer. In that context, this publication is entirely on-point for the foundation. There's an almost symbiotic relationship going on where the foundation doesn't exactly ignore the hobbyist or industrial communities - far from it - but they are still holding to their core mission, and these notable, but ultimately ancillary communities provide the budget for it.
