With Flipper One, we're reimagining what a Linux cyberdeck can be — it's a huge project. We're opening up the development process and asking the community for help.

And we all know how easy it is to buy an ARM board, install Linux and add all the ethernet ports one desires.

We do?

I reckon it's via an USB-Ethernet adapter.

If you use USB Hubs you could theoretically add as many as you want on a single USB port if you daisy chain the Hubs (if it's a really large number some of the Hubs must have external power).

Granted, performance is limited.

Never tried it, though, so maybe there are further limitations.
