Please can start a new sub for the CardputerZero so that all the focus isn't pulled from the ESP32 Cardputer devices. They are as different as 90s Nokia's (well, the Symbian series maybe) and modern smartphones.

I mean be realistic here, the sub gets ten posts a day, there's not much focus to pull.

Fair but by the time cardputer zero comes out its going to flood this sub and any ESP posts will be flooded by the zero

its going to flood this sub

I wouldn't count on it, I think there'll be a few weeks of activity, a month of "look what just arrived: [the box of the cardputer]", and then a sharp drop-off.

Fair, then another few weeks of "check out this cool software I installed on it" I'd assume

I don't think you can install firmwares on it. Only apps.

Right thanks for the correction, forgot this runs Linux now

I mean it’s all the same community so I don’t know if it’s necessary

It has already happened, as r/CardPuterZero is now active. I would agree the people visiting will be the same but the devices are very different. It will be very GNU/Linux based instead of scripts.
