It was a fun run.
I hope someone else comes up with a similar product soon.
I’m pretty sure there are a lot of similar boards out there
There are, and I think the only real difference has been the community support. The community was behind the original pi and the guides, images and support show that, and it continues to this day.
If this becomes "enshittified" then communities will grow around the alternatives, it's likely there will be an overall winner (or winners per class) and we'll move on. The device itself wasn't ever the whole story.
