Ok so the tactic is to drain the corporations of their money.
I'm doing my part by replacing the aging PCs of my close family with Mini PCs running Linux.
I stocked up on rk3566/rk3588 boards during the pandemic. They make excellent little network appliances or light-duty workstations. Mainline kernel support is now solid for both chipsets.
But they're businesses and they need to make money!
Won't someone think of the people taking us for a ride?
