Is the maker market declining? Raspi don't seem to have any trouble selling. The problem for Arduino seems to be competition. I can get better boards cheaper.

The problem for Arduino seems to be competition. I can get better boards cheaper. Arduino may have been the first, but they've since been surpassed.
- duskwuff 4y ago> Is the maker market declining? No, but it's not a huge growth market either. Makers tend to prefer products which are relatively inexpensive and close to "raw" hardware; neither of these factors are particularly favorable to manufacturers. > Raspi don't seem to have any trouble selling. Ironically, a lot of this is because it's become popular for use as an embedded Linux controller, often for applications that the BCM283x isn't even particularly well suited for. It's used in a number of musical synthesizers, for example.
