Thinking of getting a new raspberry pi. Should I get a model 4 or 5? The 4 would still work with my existing USB power adapter and it has an audio jack that I might wanna use. Any downsides I’m overlooking? I’d like to host some web-services. Maybe even mastodon. But sure there’ll be more tasks I’ll throw on it as time goes by. Home assistant, kodi, jukebox …

Pi5 is 2 to 3 times faster compared to Pi4, last time I checked price was similar, 10€ difference.
Usb audio adapter 5-10€
27W USBC poweradapter +-15€
In my eyes it’s a no-brainer.
@claude_flammang I saw an Pi4/8gb going for 75€ last Friday (here in Sweden), whereas the Pi5/8gb goes for about 120€. Plus all the extra costs. But I just found out that offer is gone now unfortunately. Waited too long. Now it’s 100€ for the Pi4. 🤷‍♂️😭
