       @mntmn I'm impressed how fluid this is on the pocket reform at 1440p. 👏

       @mntmn I’m happy to see the Pocket Reform getting some love. ☺️What’s changed in version 2?

       AMD (Xilinx) are no longer supporting Linux in the free version of #Vivado. You need to pay at least $1200/year! https://www.amd.com/en/products/software/adaptive-socs-and-fpgas/vivado/vivado-licensing-options.htmlThis makes no sense to me. This will make it harder for people to learn and get into #FPGA. 🤔

       All recent dev teams I've worked with in hardware and software have been Linux/Mac. AMD should be releasing a free version of #Vivado for Linux and macOS.Imagine if AMD charged $1000+ to compile software on Linux.The only people hurt are hobbyists and the future of #FPGA outside big enterprises.

       Contrast this with AMD's approach to GPU. ROCm is not only free on Linux, it's increasingly open source, even though it's targeting professional GPU compute users. https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-rocprof-trace-decoder
