I totally understand the Frustration the author has here. But I'd rather have any working software version than 10 that don't work well at all and that has always been my pine64 experience. Great hardware, barely any documentation, important hardware and software features don't work at all or are locked behind a very old kernel version

This is a false dichotomy. Picking a (crappy) distribution does not make it magically better.

It's the opposite in fact. By hurting the ecosystem less people contribute to kernel, applications etc, making all distributions worse.

Besides, as somebody else pointed out, if I have to buy a phone that requires me to use only one (untrusted) software stack I can as well use an android phone.
