I would really recommend watching Jeff Geerling’s video where he went to the UK to interview the rPi guys. It’s really illuminating.
Also, we are even completely out of the chip shortage today. Demand for SBCs/ SOC chips in particular has skyrocketed. We are in stage 3 of the technology adoption curve, Early Majority, and people are still acting like it’s 2018 and we’re in the Early Adopter stage.
SBCs are everywhere around you now. You don’t see them because they’re small and easy to hide but they’re being integrated into displays, signage, sensors and monitoring, even scooter rentals.
I have watched it. It was a very well done piece of PR and damage control. You’re free to extend indefinite goodwill and understanding to their organization, but mine is used up.
They’ve basically cut off consumer supply for multiple years now, so you can keep on making excuses, but maybe ask yourself if you actually even have a line they can cross, or if your just being a fanboy.
I don’t mean that as pejorative, but I don’t know what else to call it, except for being a simp, but that’s a much harder word to use and not come off as mean or angry at you, which I’m not.
Sure, for the first year, but it’s been multiple years now. What’s their excuse after the chip shortage ended?
They had goodwill, but that can’t, and shouldn’t be indefinite.
You’re free to judge them on your own terms, as am I, but I don’t think mine are unreasonable.
