Every time somebody tells me something is a great alternative to a raspberry pi, it doesn't work or idles at 90c or comes unsoldered quickly or is missing critical software or all kinds of nonsense that makes it not a close alternative, especially not at a near price point.
I'm willing to try stuff, but I'm skeptical of every new board because of previous bad experiences.
- sliken 4y agoI've had similar issues, but bought a NanoPi R6S with 8GB ram. Got ubuntu 22.04 going on the first day, and it's a nice little server. It's crazy faster than a Pi4, stable, and runs cool. I paid for the $20 CNC machines case with passive cooling. Under normal use it's quite cool to the touch, and plan to make it into a small home router after I'm done tinkering with it.
- francisduvivier 4y agoI have this board, you better add some cooling but I had no issue setting up docker containers with node red, prometheus, grafana, Emby and Home assistant. Too bad I currently can't succeed in using a raspberry pi camera on it.
