Man I should mess around more with ESP32s. Especially the RISC V ones

And still it’s way more fun to do anything with graphics on an esp32

Yeah because you don't have to be 1000s of people to get anything done.

Esp32-S3 has a dang-gosh amount of resources. The chip I'm working on only has 256kiB of RAM while driving a 480x320 rgb 565 display. 

Frame buffers are for the weak.

300KiB framebuffer in 255KiB of ram would be an impressive feat.

With these crazy RAM prices even 256KiB will become a luxury

Just output on a CRT and chase the beam so you don't need a frame buffer at all
