“Tried to follow the youtube video (mentioned in other comments), but following the info ended up on this page and everything is now running: https://learn.adafruit.com/character-lcds/python-circuitpython :)”
“I previously had some other cheap PCD screen that ended up dying within a few weeks so my expectations for this were already pretty low
But when they showed up(1 day later which is impressive considering the state of the world right now) I was blown away, before even turning them on I could easily tell the quality difference in them. And when I did turn them on? Well they worked exactly how I wanted them to and they haven’t died so I’m very satisfied with these! Defiantly recommend if you wanna spruce up one of your projects with a screen”
