What's sort of neat with a Raspberry Pi - as far as retrocomputing - is that you can run RISC/OS, the operating system for the Acorn Archimedes, which was the first ARM computer and sort of the British Amiga. On real ARM hardware, even. I haven't figured out a use for that, but it's so cool.

It is more or less usable as a daily-driver OS except for the modern WWW.

Some users VNC to a Windows PC for the browser, and use RISC OS for everything else.
