Well, or cheaper in some regions. Considering the RPi is sold with an extra fee in many places, while Mac mini is just an old outdated piece of hardware that cannot run its native OS any more. Unless you don’t care and use the outdated version. Most people with Macs have no idea Linux exists, and perhaps they aren’t aware Windows can be installed on those.
The last Intel mini from 2018 is still going for serious money because it’s the last one with upgradable RAM, albeit with soldered storage. The 2014 (which I have, running Debian as my home server) has upgradable storage, but soldered RAM.
A good thing in my book. Intel models are getting cheaper now. (Me eyeing a Mac mini, or a couple even.)
I’d imagine Intel Mac minis are approaching the price of a Raspberry Pi.
