The issue with these rpi clones is ecosystem and support. I hate overspending for rpis, but the time you save from being able to google a problem and finding somone else who had the exact same issue as you is invaluable.

This is unfortunately a critical USP for Raspberry Pi, you are much likely to have "out of the box", well-tested support with RPi.
I'm (kind of) considering buying one of these just to play with it a bit.
Is RISCV "fast enough" yet?
Not really, no.
