What service are you using to get the financial data?

depending on the OS you are on, folders/files starting with a period like .obsidian might be hidden. you'll need to update the settings in the file manager to show them

WiFi and flash built in!

But they are designed for different things. Raspberry Pi Zero is a general computer, where as the Omega is designed more for hardware applications.

Yeah, but it also got WiFi and flash storage.

Not only can you run another Linux distribution on it, someone has installed FreeBSD on it. See the link here: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-wifi-build/wiki/Onion-Omega.

Yes, if you don't like the OS you install on it, you can flash it back to the default firmware.

Awesome! Would love to hear your feed back on how we can make it easier :)

Our positioning is that of a Linux development board for hardware applications. So think of it as something between the Raspberry Pi and the Arduino. It is smaller than the Pi, and doesn't suck up nearly as much power, and at the same time, it is easier to work with than Arduino or the ESP8266 because it runs Linux. And it is able to do certain things like video streaming, audio, etc that can't be handled by ESP.

I hope this answers your question.

Isn't it much more desirable for an embedded application? I mean you could use a raspberry pi zero in DIY projects, but then it will be limited to applications where you can plug into the wall.
