I have to point this out in every story when someone bitches about the speed of their $35 computer. The goal of the Raspberry Pi was to make a device for students to learn with while being as cheap as possible. That is all. It was never designed as a desktop computer and never made any claims as such.
I don't know about that. Raspberry Pi 4 is pretty darned good as a desktop computer. Of course, I'm using it with an SSD over a USB 3.0, external USB audio DAC, and I went with the $55 4GB model.
If graphics hackers are so smart, why can't they get the bugs out of
fresh paint?

Most of them except for RPi4 are garbage for doing any real desktop work.
