Industrial applications… This is now their market, not tinkerers.

They are too slow and unreliable for the industrial market though. If you have money you can just buy X86.

Industrial is not all high tech or efficiency driven.

It’s about cost and availability. They probably buy in bulk, have some Linux image with the exact setup they need. Then they just replace them if they break with little to no downtime.

For smaller bulk-use applications there’s microchips like ESP or Teensy. For larger applications there’s X86.

For a cost effective pi alternative there’s Rockchip stuff.

There are tons of them in the industrial market. The entire shortage of them was from prioritizing the industrial market.

The entire shortage was because of Covid19
