Predictability Is Accessibility: Why I'm Moving from Raspberry Pi to openSUSE on WSL

Raspberry Pis are great little Linux machines for a lot of people.

This is not a “Pi bad” post.

It’s a post about accessibility tradeoffs.

I wanted the Pi setup to work. On paper, it looked ideal: cheap, low power, always-on, and very “Linux.”

In practice, it kept failing one question:

Can I still use this when I’m sick, tired, blind, overwhelmed, and low on energy?

For me, the answer kept being no.
