Besides that, if there is one constant about Raspberry Pi related articles then it is that there is always someone criticizing them no matter how hard they work and no matter how much they've tried to do within the rules as set by their corporate overlords.
Note that the Raspberry Pi is a lucky break and that every time you piss on the project, the founders, the contributors and the people who hold the purse strings you're doing us all no favors because there are some of us that use these things and that are praying that the peanut gallery (usually purists who would rather have nothing at all than something slightly flawed) doesn't one day cause the big boss to say it's all over.
If the Pi doesn't suit you, then don't use it. If you want something else vote with your dollars of show how it is done and if you manage to put something out with the same power, form factor, price point and not have it be controlled 100% by China I will probably become a regular buyer.

Very sorry, but people are allowed to have opinions and to express them. If the opinions upset you, then don't read them - by your logic anyway.

It is acutely on point. The only reason people have to put in work again and again to fix distributions like Fedora for Raspberry Pi models is because the foundation pulls stunts like that revD. Right now, you can take Buildroot at git master, build an RPi image and have it randomly not work on one of two what looks like identical RPi 5 boards. That's bad, and there is no reason for it.
