minus-squarecurbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoAn official raspberry pi isn’t worth gettin imo. Especially after their artificial availability issues during the pandemic. Plenty of alternatives out there, which is what I’d recommend. OrangePi is much more reasonable price wise. And if you don’t need arm, a used thin client will do the same job, cost a lot less, and have more compatibility.
