As expected, the Qualcomm enshittification of @arduino has begun. Expressif's ESP32 stuff has already been a better platform for some time... I guess I'll have to learn the ESP-IDF ecosystem now instead of the Arduino IDE.

@herzog Maybe give PlatformIO a try. https://platformio.org/

You can have it in VS Code as an IDE, which I believe the latest Arduino IDE is based on (though I haven’t tried it, I use PlatformIO in the command line because I’m a Huge Nerd With Habits.)

It supports Arduino and ESP32 boards, among others, and for the ESP32 you can choose either the ESP-IDF or the Arduino framework.

Also, buy Arduino clones by Joy-It or from AliExpress. That’s what everyone does anyway, Arduinos are overpriced.
