Theres so many better options at this point that these are basically pointless unless you need a newer broadcom chip
Could you suggest a couple SBC alternatives that I can look at? Currently using some Pi3s and Pi4s for some projects and interested in what I could switch to. I'm not using the GPIO or Pi camera, I am using USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and like the size, price, low power draw, and debian support on the Pi.
CM4 is the way to go IMO. Theres tons of compatible carrier boards from super slim boards that only use one of the socket connectors to large scale cluster boards.
Theres also alternative modules with different chips that are compatible (AFAIK) with all of the carrier boards.
