It was nice knowing Raspberry Pi while they lasted. Going to suck losing something that has changed the homegrown embedded system hobby forever.

You can buy some old thinclient lenovos on eBay for super cheap.
There’s other board manufacturers as well… basically just replace “raspberry” with some other fruit and there’s probably a Pi of it
I personally think the best thing to do is find a used Celeron laptop and disable the lid switch setting. Now you’ve got a server with a built in UPS.
Or just fire it up in a docker container because you’re already running Linux right? RIGHT?
Haha! Yezzz. Well, I installed Ubuntu in a mid-2014 Macbook pro I acquired. 🤷🏼♀️ every comments section seems to have so many users shitting on Ubuntu so idk what is going on
Ubuntu (or Canonical, their parent company) has gotten more pushy with their paid service. Personally for me, I’m moving off of Ubuntu to Debian pure systems or Arch because when I ssh to my Ubuntu file server, the MOTD tells me I can pay for some kind of premium service and get 35 additional security updates. So, that’s it. That’s my line in the sand. Don’t advertise to me on my terminal
(And then there’s all the shit about Snap being installed by default, and I’m just at a point where I only want installed what I want installed, etc)
But you do you man. If Ubuntu works great for you, stick with it. You may change your mind later down the road, you may not. As long as you’re happy with it right now that all that matters.
