For those not following #m68kMicroPython development, a lot has been happening rather quickly in the last couple of weeks!

There's enough support for the Toolbox now that I've been able to re-create the #Macstodon splash/loading screen with it - see below.

Big thanks to @stylus for all his hard work developing the port and making this possible!

🦾 Why Lua Beats MicroPython for Serious Embedded Devs

｢ Lua isn’t just compatible with embedded systems; the Lua ANSI C library was designed for them. Its architecture is clean, compact, and deterministic.

MicroPython, on the other hand, is a reimplementation of Python 3. It works well for many embedded use cases, but it inherits assumptions from a desktop-oriented language ｣
