I upgraded from the x86-amd64 Mac Mini to Rpi 4Gb then 8Gb. Changing from the default window manager to KDE really made the pixels easy on the eyes. Compiling from source code products like GNU Emacs, SBCL, Racket Lang IDE, TeX, Graphviz sorts of things is a breeze. I don't feel like I am being pushed around like China's Foxconn hires subcontracted to Apple that's looking to buy the Man. U's soccer/football hooligan fanbase. The FLASH storage medium is unreliable on the Rpi, I know, but I haven't got around to finding something faster and durable and easily replaceable. Samsung has durable external USB devices from what the advertising says. There are times on the Rpi when the cpu load shoots up, I guess that is due to Garbage In Garbage Out website JS stealing cpu cycles to mine tokens. I paid $5 for the $50 discount on the 16Gb RockX5B Radxa but by the time they got around to updates on supply I had lost the coupon discount code. Threw it out in the old email box.
