I asked on the raspberry pi forum about why the current versions of the OS were not listed. I got no answer and my post was removed without explanation. I guess it's not something they want to talk about. You have download the current image from the web site and then can choose it from the Imager. The other factor to consider is the community that can support the device. Despite problems with the Raspberry Pi forums and the occasional toxicity of the Raspberry Pi Reddits, I think the Raspberry products still win here. Delighted. :D
