I mean it was never that anyway, once you’d bought a power supply for it and a case.
I think they’re at least powered by USB-C now, so people probably have that already, while the Pi3 wasn’t quite within spec for regular micro USB so needed a custom power supply.
It’s funny, I remember hitting issues with my pi3 running homeassistant with lots of dongles.
Eventually I worked out that the random reboots were down to power draw.

Power fickleness varies across every pi we’ve looked that. They need clean and steady or you can have some wild results.
They need proprietary 25w 5V5A chargers. It does not work with all USB C.
