Riskv still has a long way to go

What do you mean by this?

What projects you think can go viral catch on and keep growing?

Yes lol this. The best use case I've seen for riscv was a usb to uart adapter. What they did is took a cheap riscv, WITH BLUETOOTH, and clone it to make it look like a ftdi. They just DNPd the Bluetooth! And it was cheaper than a legit FTDI chip.

What is taking us so long?

I still think this is a while away as hardware is a whole other level of complexity. Not to mention lower level development on hardware is a die'ing art supplanted by people that want to get rich quick doing react and quick saas websites. There is a skill set about _how_ it all works that is no longer needed. I fell into this trap for years, only in the last year have I gotten serious about trying to learn a lot of lower level stuff. I have a long way to go.
