となりのManoël🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 - Moof<p>Probably the last demo ever made at my previous work place (as they killed the demo team), and probably the first app made using <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/godotengine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>godotengine</span></a> running on a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RISCV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RISCV</span></a> platform embedded GPU: BeagleBoard's <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BeagleV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeagleV</span></a> (should also run on <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Sipeed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sipeed</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LPi4A" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LPi4A</span></a>)</p>
Jarkko Sakkinen<p>Overall I think VisionFive2 is overall better board than e.g. BeagleV for kernel development tasks because:</p><ul><li>2/3 of price</li><li>twice more memory at least in the 8GB version </li><li>Hat that can supply power and UART through micro-USB is about half price of comparable mikrobus and the overall setup is more compact in price.</li></ul><p>I had no idea how the CPU’s compare but for my tasks I neither care :-) I guess they help each other to mature in Linux kernel because the hardware platform are from the same family (jh7100 for beaglev and jh7110 for visionfive2). For some other task, e.g. building something around the SBC, the evalution might different.</p><p>I came to these conclusions based on working with VisionFive2 and I do not have BeagleV at my hands so that my cause some dilation but at least this board feels like better bang for the buck.</p><p>Still would love to get my hands on BeagleV too and get more familiar with it, and yeah, competition is a great thing, and can’t wait for more Beagleboard RISC-V products.</p><p><a class="hashtag" href="https://social.kernel.org/tag/riscv" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#riscv</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.kernel.org/tag/visionfive2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#visionfive2</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.kernel.org/tag/beaglev" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beaglev</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.kernel.org/tag/beagleboard" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beagleboard</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.kernel.org/tag/raspberrypi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#raspberrypi</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.kernel.org/tag/mikrobus" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mikrobus</a></p>

People who own a #risc-v board for various things - how's the experience? Might be looking for something similar to a RPI but wondering how the support is looking at this point in time. I've been eyeing the #BeagleV a bit but unsure.
