Regardless, it seems you are finding success on Fedora. While this is not a solution, you can bypass the SD card issue by installing your OS to eMMC.
Ah, I switched back to Debian Bullseye again. Fedora felt too heavy but currently Debian Bullseye Gnome is chewing up my processor and battery with 'evolution-calendar'. I had a slight problem in connecting to bluetooth in Debian i don't have it. Debian has other issues...
On Bullseye, uname -r command gives me
5.5.0-1-pinebookpro-arm64
Afaik Debian stable is on 4.19 kernel. I have eliminated to restore my files from the 2TB hard disk by removing the sd from pbp, plugging sd with adapter into my laptop and doing all the backup restoration process there. It was very easy and i can't believe I spent more than a week in restoring my files directly on pbp.
