I have used A500 and RPi4 side by side and, as far as how it plays, I feel it's 99.99%, if not 100% perfect for almost every game that I have tried. I have only found a problem with Leander not stopping during the level briefing (for which I am not sure RPi/Amiberry is to blame), but apart from that, everything is the same and, if any lag is present, it is not noticeable.
You seem to preach cycle-accurate emulation, etc in your posts, but I feel you are stuck in technical stuff. If I didn't have the Amiberry experience, I would read your posts and think: "Wow, this guy really knows what he's talking about". Well, I have tried Amiberry and I think you don't (know what you're talking about) and I feel you are missing the forest for the trees. The OP wants a great Amiga experience, not the emulation Olympics medal.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by my "tone". I thought my reply was pretty tone-less and matter-of-factly. Unless you have a problem in general with people disagreeing with your opinions, but unfortunately there's not much can be done about it.
The main thing here is that when it comes to technical stuff feelings are not the best yardstick. I personally prefer to stick to facts. The lag and some games not working because of lack of cycle accuracy are facts, and I'm not preaching but simply stating them. if you have no problem with that then it's great, but for some people these things are important and knowing them might help them make an informed decision (especially when like OP they
specifically ask about them).
Overall, your "emulation Olympics" and "preaching" jibes are rather unfair I think, despite a promise of respectful reply. This was my reply's conclusion after all:

This is a recommendation - from someone who has been running Amiga on an RPi for the last 3 years. I'm sorry that it does not align with your over-enthusiastic and factually incorrect claims about the quality of RPi emulation, but as I said earlier I prefer factual statements to emotional ones.
