                @lofty73 got mine today, unplugged the pi 0w, and moved the sd card over… up we run…

                installed electron (cause it wasn’t on the armv6)

                and runs nice…

                pretty low cpu usage

                      my pi zero 2w was delivered today and I’m really surprised about the good performance.

                      Tested 2 apps:

                      • mm as docker setup
                      • motioneye with google drive upload (also docker)

                      Both worked out of the box and felt not slower as on my old pi 3b.

                        @karsten13 memory is a little slower than PI3b… but not too terrible
