Rock64 official support
Which I think gives not only some good historical context, but also some more recent info about which of the more recent build(s) might be working.
I think Igor's bias against Pine64 is quite overt there, referring to the Rock64 as "cheap hardware." If the original maintainer feels like it's a dead-end, I don't know what else to add.
I can understand the task of trying to support so much hardware, and why it isn't feasible, but my point was clear and stands: this is dead-end hardware if nobody else is going to do the work. I'm surely not capable of it.
I will be buying hardware moving forward that does have Armbian support, "voting with my dollar" as Igor would say.
