The trails is just a theme issue - turn off kvantum or use the breeze theme. not a GPU issue.
TI seems to be writing a proper GPU driver though. Looking at Binn's code his seems much simpler.
Armbian seems a better path forward than Pinix, because Armbian and Ubuntu might be updating packages.
Update:
I installed wayland and plasma on Armbian, but as-is without any acceleration it was extremely slow. I couldn't even log in. I've seen Apple ]['s with faster graphics.
Unrelated note:
The Waveshare board appears to have the same specs as the Star64, same GPU: https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/VisionFive2
But I tried two of their disk images and neither booted.
