    i think it was already dead and replaced by the esp32s - the original arduinos are too expensive for what actually offered: get the performance of a 8-bit cpu with 2k RAM but at raspberry pi prices

      Exactly. Why would anyone still use Arduino when alternatives are both better and cheaper?
