Neat to see the emergence of another major CPU architecture. I guess the main benefit of RISC-V is that any company can make a RISC-V chip if they want. Note that this doesn’t mean their chip design is open source or anything; it just means whatever silicon they design implements the RISC-V instruction set.

okay that’s it I’m gonna finally get one of these
Actually sweet, even if the CPU perf is underwhelming. What distros have full desktop RISCV support?
Seems like Ubuntu is putting resources into it: https://ubuntu.com//blog/canonical-enables-ubuntu-on-starfive-visionfive2-risc-v-board
