The Company is considering applying for admission of its ordinary shares to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange (“Admission”).”

    Well that sucks.

    I maintain a few useful packages targeted for use on Pi. I strongly suspect that if Raspberry Pi goes private sale, I’ll drop support for Pi before long (and focus on alternative cheaper single board computers). I only support what I use, and I don’t use enshitified products for long. But I guess we will see what happens.

    I hope this brings economies of scale that bringe better value to customers, but I fear it will bring a shortsighted mindset that will reduce value for customers.

    I hope employees get some benefit of the IPO windfall too.

      I really wish there was another US-sphere manufacturer for SBCs. I don’t really trust chinese boards or any board manufactered by a company with no legal liability in the US for that matter.
