Anyway, I would appreciate if we could keep future posts on topic rather than on alternatives.  It's honestly more than a little disappointing to me how quickly some people are willing to abandon Armbian after all the effort they have put forth for so many years.  Which to me just proves they were/are right in their assessment of what they need to do, in order to maintain their own sanity.

I have seen too many good F/LOSS projects disappear over the years due to burnout.  I hope this does not happen with Armbian, which is why I am trying to help get the word out about these (upcoming) changes.

I couldn't agree more , I apologise for the discussion on alternatives . I have been a donator to Armbian for years and  I like yourself really hope they manage to receive enough interest , investment and support, maintenance wise that they continue to thrive for years to come.
