Rust on Espressif chips – 15-07-2022
What's everyone's read on how successful the new pi pico W is going to be?Undoubtedly the pi pico W will take some amount of mindshare away from Espressif, but espressif still has several advantages that are important to me (ESPHome, usb-c board availability, ease of creating custom PCBs with their small all-in-one modules, RISC-V), but the gap will close, and my worry is that the might of the Pi community will basically just make it the more well-supported chip in the long run.I know it's impossible to predict the future, but after the announcement, I find myself a little less excited to continue investing in keeping up with the esp32 stuff, even though right now I have something like 10 boards automating various parts of my home(note this is from the lens of a tinkerer, not someone using these professionally)
