📰 Your next "Raspberry Pi project" doesn't actually need a Raspberry Pi
If you’ve worked on DIY computing projects in the late 2010s, you’ve definitely heard of the Raspberry Pi, if not own a few single-board computers belonging to this family. After all, their tiny form-factor, affordable price tags, and solid compatibility with popular Linux distros (and packages) made them the perfect tinkering companions. But that’s all in the past now.
