But even with GPIO, there's other cheaper boards out there with better specs to boot

Yeah but non with better support. They all tend to have OSes with limited updates and/or community support.

That is a huge plus for pi. And likely the only reason they survive.

I tried the orange pi, and that was a hassle, I had to fix and compile some obscure library in C to make python control I/O work.
