Raspberry pi was founded as a cheap accessible computer that schools with few resources could afford. $25 boards, or if you had big bucks $35. With the intention the price would stay like that with improving technology. They broke this model with the rpi4 and have only gone up in price.
First sentence: agreed. The part after that, you could have done without. Be nice to people. Especially people who have less money.
Really appreciate seeing folks voice this sentiment, thanks for contributing to a positive culture here :)
If you stalk my account you'll see I won't always be nice, but I would never kick downwards. ;)
As I don't kick downwards, I hope you find happiness in life.
