If you're interested in a purely aarch64 OS, I'd suggest you try using one of the other, many OS options. There even is a script to install Bullseye with a mainline kernel.

I tried other os distros and read about a lot. And in the end i realized that the orginal os runs the best. And for widevine is this a great decision for many users. I will stay by stock: runs smooth, best supported and only debian got good support. The Manjaro looks amazing and runs nice,  but its manjaro... App support is so bad. It's like in the old days with apple notebooks and bootcamp. So all should run on the default os for me Smile

Manjaro might be worth a try on an SD card, just to compare. Its app support is not bad at all. There have been some bumps getting particular apps to compile for aarch64, but that's often dependent upon the apps themselves. Most PKGBUILDs I've had to edit to install on aarch64 gave me no issues at all.
