Re:GNU toolchain for RISC-V including GCC by chatmasta on Friday April 14, 2023 @01:10PM (#35571943)
I'm guessing this was posted because RISC-V SBCs are starting to ship, with VisionFive2 and Pine64 recently announcing availability of their boards (although I haven't seen the one from Pine64 in stock yet). Especially with the RaspberryPi shortage, I expect that as RISC-V gains software stability, these boards will start to fill the SBC niche.

Meanwhile, institutions like NASA [0] and the EU [1] are making big investments in the architecture. You can sense the hype by looking at the top submissions in r/riscv [2] from the past year.

I think this architecture is very promising. I'm excited for the ecosystem to mature.
