I can't answer your questions as I have no meaningful experience of armbian or dietpi. Certainly I am happy with my installation as per my sig: it runs pretty stable and suitably low resource usage. So Ubuntu minimal is def worth being on your list imho.
I did try recently Manjaro ARM and postmarketOS (from pinebook pro) in a futile attempt to get a v5 kernel. Basically with both I had problems fairly quickly to get the functionality I need and couldn't resolve them so I am still on Ubuntu.
