    This isn’t even remotely true. Everyone knows that if you’re trying to do a cheap embedded product, you use SBCs and Linux. Using Windows for these kinds of applications is almost always the result of a company having a contract with Microsoft that leads their development strategy towards Microsoft’s offerings rather than the best offerings.

    Also, in what universe is a Linux platform more proprietary than Windows?

      People here are delusional, booting windows eats more ram than your typical embedded product needs to run. Same goes the hard drive.

      And this people also think maintaining a yocto/build root image is proprietary 🤷‍♂️
