Getting an LED to blink is easier on Arduino because you don’t need to setup SSH or use the Pi’s GUI. It’s just that the Pi can do so much more than basic GPIO controlling.
minus-squareivan@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·25 days agoWhat I’ve used RPi for: Finishing masters thesis when my PC died at most unfortunate time possible. Controlling 3D printers. Connecting old boring paper printers to home network. Making my dumb TV smart (worth noting that RPi also supports HDMI-CEC, so no additional remote required). Hosting all kinds of stuff - websites, web-services, gaming servers, Discord bots, git server, VPNs, Pi-Hole etc. Controlling radio transceivers (SDR). Controlling robots. I’ve probably forgotten something. But yes - it’s a miniature miracle worker, that I used to throw at my problems. 🗿
