I’m a big supporter of RPI, purchased many different models over the years to run various services in my homelab. At this price point it doesn’t make any sense at all. Its USP was very low cost hardware to run Linux. I hope this isn’t the beginning of the end for them.
I recently repurposed one of my old Pis to run LibreElec for me. It barely chugs along, and there are many issues. Thought I might buy a new one, not realising just how much they cost now. It’s frankly absurd.
I could buy a much more capable NUC second hand for less.
