I still use em cause they work and thats what I learned. my projects are simple enough: ultrasonic sensor detects when someones near, activates a relay etc
yeah none of my props actually use name brand arduinos. theyre “for arduino nano” chinese boards. cheap as hell and, touch wood, havent failed even after one went haywire from being wet too long… next season it was back to functioning completely normally

The good news is that there are a billion no-name brands in China etc. manufacturing drop-in replacement Arduino-compatible boards.
I got into microcontrollers through Arduino but very quickly moved to much cheaper (and tbh, better) third-party options.
