Yeah, Arduino, Teensy, ESP32… I prefer these options when you don't in fact need an OS.

Less OS means less to go wrong. (Just waiting for a Pi to boot vs. a Teensy is reason enough to go with the more stripped-down hardware.)

I agree, it definitely felt a bit spoiled using a full computer for a toy like this, but the main goal for me was learning something new.
