Hello, everyone. Is the RPi5 supported or should we stay with the RPi4b? The dimensions between those two are compatible, but we would appreciate any recommendations regarding software dependencies. P.S. This is my first post. This is outstanding progress compared to previous methods of internal communication. Thanks a lot for maintaining a sense of community! Edgar ---

Hola @EdgarBolivar The OSL setup is compatible with both the Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5. The RPi4 already runs the latest version of Raspbian, so it’s fully compatible with our current software. However, we recommend using the RPi 5 when possible since it’s faster and more up-to-date. \_\_\_\_ Also glad to hear you’re enjoying the new setup! We’re hoping to continue building on it, adding more updates and opportunities for people to feel truly part of the project and help it grow. 🙂
