Chill dude not everyone's from a first world country

Strongly disagree, it's from very cheap components and Arduinos are least powerful microcontrollers with the most limited option how to program them. You can basically use Arduino IDE or cross-compile and upload source code. Only advantage is that Pro Mini is low power device (once you remove power LED) and it's good enough when you need to get things done fast. But once you are familiar with other platforms, original arduino is the most expensive and the least performant MCU. Arduino was great 10 years ago, today there are alternatives and they should adapt.

@@pavelp80 well another thing is that most of the people that view these types of videos are teens and children that are just getting started with their journey(they cant get a job). Here's a scenario(what usually happens) what would happen if finally after 2 months of convincing his/her parents timmy finally got an arduino and other necessary stuff. And then he asked for another servo or smth like tht or that he wants another microcontroller like an esp(because he got better). Yk what would happen? In most countries he would just get a slap on his wrist/face and get told they are wasting money. Yeah, I agree parents are very stupid there and while even if you consider that the salary of those parents is more than enough to buy 100s of rasberry pis, they would think that this is just a toy and a waste of money. Like a one time thing and no more. So when those children want to convince their parents they need to find the cheapest available option to present to them. Also 38000 rupees or like 300 dollars is the monthly income of most people, so 36k per year (and even then is one of the High salaries among others)

@@trade_design23I just found that their annual salary is like 4504.4 dollars (I messed up my math before)

He even had them almost right. Hes just missing a bit of thinking

i am not familiar with the UNO R4 but i have been using various ESPs, and i think the ESP32-S3 is pretty amazing especially for the price. the ESP32-S2 is also really good, assuming you don't need bluetooth. and i believe both the -S2 and -S3 support running native RISC-V code in low power draw mode. i am not fond of python for various reasons so i can't speak to that; i'm sure it's fine for IoT stuff when you can afford the extra overhead, but you can always use the Arduino IDE to write C++ code which seems more appropriate to me. and if you are concerned about power draw ESP seemed the way to go to me. or a good way to go at least. although, wow, i looked it up. i'm still curious what the difference in power draw would be between MilkV vs. various ESP32-XX but wow at $10 it is indeed pretty amazing and also includes that arm core. not being capped at 264K or whatever seems nice, i am considering trying to pick maybe a duo and a duo256 up and doing some comparative power-draw/memory speed/io speed/etc. type tests. oh also i have not tried them but there are ESP32 variants that have RISC-V only as well, i would assume but have not confirmed that those are much lower power draw than the -SX ones.

Ok, I‘ll Look it up. Thank you for the comment!
