Everyone with an Arduino project has, starting as of NOW, six months to look for a replacement.

If you don't start right away, I can point out someone who will be in a lot of pain in a few months.

Believe me...

Qualcomm to Acquire Arduino—Accelerating Developers’ Access to its Leading Edge Computing and AI

@masek given the number of clones there are, do you really think this is a problem?
@gim You have to decide to switch to clone. Then there will be some problems. Those will be solvable, but need time. Time you won't have if you have to do it in a hurry. That's why I recommend to start now.
