I have been having persistent issues uploading to the Nano_Every from PIO with the atmelmegaavr platform (sample verbose at bottom).
It seems to be that the upload hangs as it forces a board reset and then waits for the upload port which I don't think is needed (I am no expert here). I have not had these issues with the Arduino IDE which is using the same version of avrdude (at this moment in time on my machine) so am fairly certain it's due to how PIO is handling uploads to this board.
I have managed to successfully program the board by modifying the nano_every.json so these two lines are false:
"require_upload_port": false,"wait_for_upload_port": false
Verbose output for non modified json is consistently as follows:
<lambda>(["upload"], [".pio\build\nano_every\firmware.hex"])
AVAILABLE: jtag2updi
CURRENT: upload_protocol = jtag2updi
BeforeUpload(["upload"], [".pio\build\nano_every\firmware.hex"])
Auto-detected: COM23
Forcing reset using 1200bps open/close on port COM23
Waiting for the new upload port...
