anyone could tell me how did you use raspberry pi?

Home Assistant for home automation. Homematic for HVAC integration. Syncthing for backing up my phone's data.

And last but not least just a Linux machine to ssh into to play around with.

Lots of them are also going into commercial products, eg https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/production-and-supply-chain... from a time of tight supply said "We spend a lot of time on backlog management. We have to balance volume demand from commercial and industrial customers with the demand we see from individuals. Right now we feel the right thing to do is to prioritise commercial and industrial customers – the people who need Raspberry Pis to run their businesses – we’re acutely aware that people’s livelihoods are at stake."

Only quad core, no 16gb or 32gb ram option and pcie only available through a hat (and possibly slower than the usb3 port)? I was expecting a bit more to be honest.

Mine's reading temperature, humidity and pressure from sensors and uploading it to a VPS. My second one that is, my first one hasn't done more than collect dust.

You can do that with the lowly ESP8266.

They say that the silicon was "designed in-house" for the best possible performance. What does that mean, exactly? Does it have semi-custom ARM cores? That seems unlikely to me.

Funny how the PCIe port has less bandwidth than the USB 3.0 ports (4Gbps vs. 5Gbps). But I'm sure there are latency or other benefits to PCIe.

Using storage on USB 3 cost you processing power on the CPU but using PCI does not. As far as I know that is the only difference
