      A couple years of not being able to buy them anywhere close to MSRP did enough damage I guess. Plus it exposed people to some alternatives.

      For the price you can by a pretty competent n100 based mini PC which beats the hell out of the pi for a lot of tasks. Makers can get a cheaper solution via esp32 or clones… so what real market is there for it?

      Pi isn’t dead but the IPO would be a hail mary for funding while they figure out how not to go bankrupt.
