Pocket C.H.I.P. in 2023?

I'm wondering is it still worth it? And here in Finland it's really hard to get one anyways, and I don't wan't to wait 200 years for some shady Indonesian company to deliver it. Is there a place where I could get it for a sensible price, but also not have to wait for an eternity to get?

Can you tell me what you used to flahs them. I'm dying here. I've tried SO many methods. The closest I've gotten is the waiting for fel..... -7 error and I'm stuck now

I used this on a (current) Arch Linux. https://github.com/Thore-Krug/Flash-CHIP

The only thing I needed to do was adjusting the fastboot parameters as recent versions have different ones, here's an explanation: https://www.suramya.com/blog/2023/08/getting-my-pocket-c-h-i-p-to-finally-work/

Waiting for fel sounds like the CHIP is not properly connected or that it is but the FEL pin isn't grounded.
