I rarely use the manufacturer image. I'll either grab an Armbian spin or vanilla Debian aarch64 and build the device tree. I really like the layout and options on this board. If I was in the market for another SBC this would be tempting. But I also don't need video support or do anything GPU related. If you do, you may find boards like this to be lacking.
At least in Europe it hasn’t been very easy to get none-mainstream boards or at normal price. Unless I’m blind lol
