Nope, I did not give up on the project.
I run rpiFSK here for FSK RTTY from 2Tone or MMTTY via a Raspberry Pi 3.
Have shared the software and assisted a small handful of hams with
running it... but it proved to be somewhat difficult to get configured,
and I am afraid to "advertise" it too heavily because I am unable to
provide the support that folks might need. At this stage I would have to
classify rpiFSK as poorly suited for civilians. ;-)
Am running a variety of homebrew apps here on stand-alone Raspberry
Pi's: rpiFSK RTTY FSK, nVSP (non virtual serial port) CAT cache and
router, UDP band decoder switch... all of which I regularly mistreat
with power reboot interrupts. Haven't lost a microSD card yet.

The other thing that caught my eye is mention of TinyFSK being
recreated for the RPi. This is of interest to me only because I
happen to have an RPi sitting idle, looking for work.
The one gotcha I can think of is that if you run something like
Raspbian on your Raspberry Pi, you will need to power it down in an
orderly fashion, or you will be forever reflashing the microSD card
:-).
Having said that, for simple projects, I myself have migrated from
using AVR processors (like in Arduinos) to using ARM processors, both
with or without Raspbian.
As a recovering Solaris admin, making sure to properly shut down *nix
systems is still A Thing for me. :-)
K8UT's page is a little thin on RPiFSK details - maybe he gave up on
the idea? Maybe I'm not googling hard enough?
