Raspberry Pi isn’t really a skill in itself. It’s not something you’ll put on your CV like Windows administration or Office use. So if you’re buying a Raspberry Pi just to become “good at Raspberry Pi”, you’re missing the point. For me, Raspberry Pi is like a training ground where I can try out different…
After testing so many Raspberry Pi projects over the years, I have a pretty good idea of what works well, is genuinely useful, and what I would keep even if I only had one Raspberry Pi at home. A Raspberry Pi can support many home projects, but the three I rely on most are a…
Pi-Hole, with Retropie or Magic Mirror, is one of those projects that somehow always makes it to the “best Raspberry Pi projects” lists. If you have a Raspberry Pi, it’s hard not to know about it. So obviously, I’m a big fan and using it myself at home, right? Well, not so fast… Setting up…
I know, I know. When you see the current Raspberry Pi prices and compare them to the much cheaper boards on AliExpress, it’s hard to resist. Some of them even have better specs on paper. So why pay more for a Raspberry Pi when all those “fruit Pi” boards seem to do the same thing?…
After writing 600+ Raspberry tutorials on RaspberryTips, it’s easy to think a Raspberry Pi can do pretty much everything. And basically, it does. But does that mean it’s a good idea to use a Raspberry Pi for anything? Probably not. The Raspberry Pi is an excellent tool to experiment with Linux servers or electronics and…
Raspberry Pi starter kits are already getting pretty expensive these days, and it’s easy to think you need everything to get started: a case, keyboard, mouse, and… a dedicated monitor. Well, in most cases you don’t really need any of that stuff. You’ll only need a Raspberry Pi monitor in a few specific situations, like…
In most other articles on RaspberryTips, I usually suggest getting an accessory or buying a new model to run this or that app. Today, it’s the opposite. I want to show you a few projects you can run to save money (or even make some). A lot of folks are saying that with current prices,…
With Raspberry Pi prices going crazy lately due to RAM shortages, picking the right Raspberry Pi model is harder than ever. I basically have all of them, so I use the Raspberry Pi 5 most of the time (I bought it before the price went up, though). But if I were starting all over again,…
AI (artificial intelligence) is a buzzword that has been thrown around a lot these days, and the Raspberry Pi ecosystem is no exception. New use cases have been tested on it, and new products have even been released to accompany this phenomenon. So, what can your Raspberry Pi actually do with AI? A Raspberry Pi…
Beginners tend to start with Raspberry Pi OS because it’s what they get on their SD card or because it seems like the logical choice, which is fine. Then, they learn about other systems. There are probably more than 100 listed in Raspberry Pi Imager alone, and many others can run on a Raspberry Pi….
