Hey man have seen you around here, very knowledgeable, thanks for your input!
What's your take on projects like https://github.com/corundum/corundum I'm trying to get better at FPGA design, perhaps learn PCIe and some such but Vivado is intimidating (as opposed to Yosys/nextpnr which you seem to hate) should I just get involved with a project like this to acclimatise somewhat?
