Have half a dozen M5Stack based devices using ESPHome. There's a big community supporting that. When I tried developing using an IDE found them more troublesome.

I'm not sure if this is good or bad. I use an M5Stack tough for one of my products. It works ok, but I really wish M5 had some more OEM friendly options.

I don't think M5 is looking for OEM partners, it's pretty clearly a B2C solution. Espressif has most everything you need if you're looking to OEM something.

This was going through my head. From a cost of acquisition standpoint Espressif had already captured (effectively) 100% of M5 stacks users, so this must be a play to remove some inefficiencies and the supply chain they already have in place.
