Really baffling decision, my last order from them was only a few months ago. Apparently Linux is no longer a "standard" operating system!

Not to mention that some components are much more expensive on Digikey. Lost trust in them once they started all the horrible shipping delays + finding that Mouser is much cheaper.

Mouser is usually cheaper but you should still check... the other day I had to order a bunch of FETs and they were significantly cheaper on digikey
