| Qualcomm owning Arduino is a real mismatch as evidenced by this device. A great pity because likely it’ll end up in the demise of Arduino which is central to the hobbyist microcontroller scene. |

| I think the "Arduino platform" will live on in Teensy, others. |

| ▲ | andrewstuart 3 days ago | parent [-] | | The hardware is the least important bit of Arduino. It’s the IDE, as crappy as it is. | | |
| ▲ | HeyLaughingBoy 3 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Not even the IDE. Those of us that care have switched to VS Code + PlatformIO.
The arduino ecosystem is all that matters, and that won't die for a long time. Heck, there are many chip manufacturers building in an Uno header pinout into their dev boards so you can try them out with off the shelf Arduino shields. | |

Like, you can install support for a board or some hardware and have premade example code running on it within a few minutes. Without even reading any extra documentation. | |

| I'll be always "grateful" to Arduino UNO R3 for my first foray into hardware-related stuff. |
