@sdetweil The comments directly above by @karsten13 about some changes done are above my pay grade but I worry that in the quest to “make things better” RaspberryPi will build themselves right out of the niche Pi’s were created for.

@ankonaskiff17 I hear yah
they are trying to NOT build (and support) UNIQUE things… as they are buried in adding new stuff…
so, I expect changes to keep happening, AND that the pi as it was, is no longer the ‘only’ SBC in town as the competition heats up with mini-pcs …
all of the things in cloud_init are things the raspiconfig app could set,
I try to stay away from all that system, config stuff, as there are too many platforms to keep track of whatever works…

@sdetweil Having installed the latest greatest Pi OS version, it is a lot more complicated process and some of it does not work.
Some of the items they do prior to writing to the sd card I have had to go into raspi-config to set. So doing the same configuration step twice is not good.
I suppose they are trying to capture a portion of the market they did not have before.
The curse of going public. Quarterly earnings.
I just looked at their ticker for the first time ever and not a stock I would ever buy . -
@ankonaskiff17 hm, the 2.0 imager did all the setup right the other day, same as before, user, network, ssh

@sdetweil I’ve had to go in on my last two installs and reenter the locale stuff. I know you are not a fan of the old VNC option which Pi has built their own and brought screen sharing in-house with Connect but is a challenge to get up and running. I had to go into raspi-config to enable it. I’ve gotten it going on my my recent installs but not without fumbling around some to get there.
I think the warning one gets about using user Pi and that I should change it is overkill.Connect, if I remember you can enable in the configuration before you actually write the image to the sd card but nope.
Last install I skipped over enabling Connect in the pre-configuration and did it in Raspi-config.
Notice this screen shot and Control Centre vs raspi-config . So enabling Connect and Locale were where I had problems.
