I’m have the stm32 Feather on my desk right now. I use Micropython and it works out just fine. I prefer a raspberry pie zero w though honestly. I can ssh right to it and edit python with vim right on the device. I know the pi isn’t “hard real time” but the servos and sensors I’m using on a rocket don’t seem to care.

Power consumption and sleep capabilities are also drastically different, not just the hard-realtime. After all the RPi Zero W runs a complete "desktop" OS, while the feathers run a single compiled executable directly on the hardware.
