minus-squareABetterTomorrow@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·27 days agoWatched this yesterday, seems pretty cool but I won’t buy due to it …uniqueness. Hope it get flushed out with firmware updates. If it was around $300 I would buy it. I rather buy a Mac Mini at that price point or play with Pi5s
