China's T-Head TH1520 is coming close, it's RISC-V and supposedly faster than the Raspberry Pi.

What's surprising is that this unencumbered hardware is coming from a country that's a dictatorship.
- survirtual 3y agoWe may have different ideas of "close." What makes the Raspi special is a vast repository of documentation, a community of people offering support, and extremely well supported peripherals with tight integration. This is a lot of work to do well and to maintain.
