yeah, even for GPIO interfacing, there are far cheaper options (ESP32) than the raspberry Pi out there. The Pi was an appealing piece of hardware about 10 years. But now, not sure it makes sense to use as a low cost server.

There's raspberry pi pico and pi zero that compete against esp32.

The product in title uses a rp2040 for gpio.

I for one prefer the raspberry products (nice sdk for pico and much more features for not that much more power use/cost on pi zero)

I do have ESP32s as well but they're mostly stuck to micropython.
