On the watch front I opted for the Bangle.JS 2. The abstraction to everything being JavaScript can be annoying, but takes away some foot guns for tinkerers who don't want to optimize lower level code.

Yeah. I didn't mind the idea of learning C for the PineTime, but the development process for it was just not functional for someone new to that kind of development.

I use JavaScript every day for my job, so that seems much better for my purposes.

Of course! I've loved mine. The community and integration with Gadgetbridge are both awesome. You're in for a treat if you go this route.
