Open hardware would be incompatible with modern day commercial aspirations.
Coupled with FOSS of course.
#ESP32 is more for IoT than regular computing – but you can use it for #meshcore (and other #LoRa-based projects), wish is an interesting, albeight very basic, alternative to common (controlled) networks.

@0x0@hachyderm.io @lori @Khrys@mamot.fr folks are, amazingly, building tiny computers that run python or basic around esp32. surprised me too! you need another chip to handle vga, and some external static RAM, it appears. here is a project emulating i386 that runs windows 98! on an esp32!! https://hackaday.com/2021/07/28/emulating-the-ibm-pc-on-an-esp32/
