I remember being recommended to look into ESP32 microcontrollers but it's not European and was wondering if there are other European ones.

Do you happen to know how is the availability?

I recall couple of years back commercial companies started buying pis and microcontrollers and even the company I was working for started to look for arduinos in desperation. This was obviously really shitty for hobbyists because it inflated the prices and availability was poor.

It's fine. They had issues during covid shortages the same as everyone else and that was the full Pi, not the RP2040. Which was actually fine at the time.

That's good to hear. Thanks for all the info, appreciate it!
