Like, on one hand, I do definitely understand his hate for Broadcom. I get it.
But on the other hand, it really doesn't make sense to talk shit on other products that have valid use.
Seed signers, because they're based off of a Raspberry Pi and other bords, do not have a secure element, meaning they are not storing your seed on the device. Seed storage becomes the user's responsibility.
I guess ultimately though it comes down to user preference. Do you want to place your trust in a company like Coinkite to keep your seed safe, Or would you rather put your trust in a project that is actually FOSS and forces you to store your key in a different manner?
Some people probably won't like the responsibility that a seed signer kind of forces you to take on and would rather just have a single device that stores your keys and that's totally understandable.
In my original snide comment aside, as much as I want to respect NVK for being someone who actually does a lot of useful shit for Bitcoin, his business conduct is bad. He talks shit on other products simply because they're competition And called out his bullshit like changing licenses And trying to say that his project is still free and open source.
