I have a Jetson nano. It's a nice thing for what it is, and the price.
But, the software misses the mark by a lot. It's still based on Ubuntu 18.04.
Want python later than 3.6? Not in the box. A lot of python modules need compiling, and the cpu is what you'd expect. Good for what it is, bad for compiling large numbers or packages.
They run a fancy modern desktop based on the Ubuntu one. Sure, it's Nvidia, gotta be flashy. But that eats a quarter of the memory in the device and make the SOC run crazy hot all the time.
These aren't insurmountable issues, they just left a bad taste in my mouth. In theory I only have to do setup changes once, but it's still a poor experience
