There are the X11 drivers, the somewhat accelerated framebuffer, Wayland, or even Vulkan. Which one?
Personally i would love to see wayland support. Ideally, wayland and x11. I don't think the Pine will benefit anything from Vulkan... might be wrong...
Someone said that the developers lied about Ubuntu support... i don't think that is true... you see, it's about how you phrase things... Linux and Ubuntu will work on this board. We just don't know if or when will we have accelerated graphics... you'll have Linux and Ubuntu, but in Terminal mode... that is Linux/Ubuntu support...
And the Pine64 developers cleverly hid this piece of information in order to grab a few extra bucks.
