I’d still like a decent first fpga. Guys? I’m still here guys! Please make me some FPGAs!

Sorry, you can have a cheap-ish FPGA that came out 10 years ago, or a new FPGA that costs more than your car and requires a $3000 software license to even program. Those are the only options allowed.

The new COP FPGAs are in the $100-400 range. Not cheap but nothing compared to the high end parts.

So Intel has abandoned the sub-100usd segment to AMD/Xilinx, Lattice, Efinix and Microchip?

The COP is AMD/Xilinx. I have no idea what the agilex 3 and 5 costs are, I'm not an Altera user. I will note though, having used Lattice, Microchip, and (admittedly at the start of Titanium) Efinix, none of the tools come close to Vivado/Vitis. I'm on lattice at the moment and I've lost countless hours to the tools not working or working poorly on Linux relative to Xilinx. Hobbyist me doesn't care, I'll sink the hours in. Employee me does care, though.
