Instead of buying a raspberry pi you can buy an old MacBook Air for the same price and it’ll have a battery, screen, more ram, and an ssd.

yeah that’s fine as long as you actually need those hobbyist things. if it’s just a computer you want there’s dramatically better options

raspberry pi hardware is supremely mid, what you're buying into is the "ecosystem" (also mid)

I was going to ask "what about analog out" but apparently the RPi5 still doesn't have this. Even though arduino did forever. As does ESP32.
