That's kind of interesting.  Arm and riscv on the same die, like the new
RPi chip?  You can also get an RPi Pico 2 for $5 if that helps.  I don't
know if Mecrisp has been ported to it, but there is plenty of capacity
(520KB of ram and 4MB of flash).

The Milkv appears to have 64 bit riscv and it runs Linux, wow!  I don't
know if Mecrisp can run on that.  The Pico 2 is dual core Riscv-32, plus
ARM.  I don't remember what risc-v cpu extensions it has.

The RPI Zero series are available now (not in short supply) but
expensive by comparison, $10 to $18 depending.
