is this the 'jumped the shark' moment for companies? as soon as they go 'public' you can no longer assume their product is their priority.
Yes
You can expect them to drop at maybe one more good product, as going public is what companies do when they want to raise a lot of funds for some project
But after THAT, when it turns out that the new product is just... Making money instead of making ALL the money, the investors will take over and from then on it's fucked.
But yeah RPi has alternatives now. No need to tie yourself to them when they DO sink.
