I tried stable release of Android, Ubuntu etc. but non of them are useful neither for work nor at entertainment.
Pine64 has not fulfilled what it promised while launch.
The Pine64 still has untapped potential using mainline kernels, and mainline distros like Fedora, OpenSuse and even Redhat. Early adopters have moved on - that is ok. And credit to those who did invaluable work getting the board up and running for users. But a new challenge awaits - the mainstream is out their. That is why Pine64 Inc should be in the user/software space ensuring ongoing support for their users who invested in these. My 2c.
