Comment on I wonder why people treat it like an Ancient Egyptian cat?

If this is true, it’s great news to me, and I’d like you to show me where I can get a nice, cheap, well supported single board computer.

Nothing is cheap any more, not even (perhaps especially) the Raspberry Pi, but there are plenty of options out there with similar specs, sizes and prices. The Raspberry offerings are no longer unique as they were when it first released.

Okay great. Please share examples.
(If you don’t respond or reply without examples, I’m not going to reply to it, but everyone reading this is gonna know that you’re talking out of your ass.)

Many people are going for Mini PCs now, which are obviously larger than the Pi, but can be found for similar prices and offer x86-64 rather than ARM as most SBCs do.
Happy?

Running a NanoPi R76S as a home router with OpenWRT. Thing’s amazing.

Do you have a preference among these? Particularly for light-weight home servers and simple networked devices like a security camera?

Yes, very. Thank you.
