Pis have been overpriced for a long time now. They're often just expensive or more expensive than a mini pc. And the mini pc's are nearly as power efficient while being much more capable.

    There's also the clones. If the community as a whole would stop being so brand-loyal and started reaching out into the world of these tiny computers that's often better, but at half the price, the Raspberry Pie would die an ugly death.

    I still use raspberry pies. One for Klipper, one as a NAS and a few older models for testing. I'm satisfied with the Pi 4 2GB models. What alternatives are there that are at least as good?

    I'm considering looking for old laptops with broken screens.
