Pine A64/A64+ was a kickstarter effort. They do not have the cash that Intel, AMD, etc. have. It is ridiculous to think that they should have leverage with the keepers of the various Linux and Unix distributions. Just like how the Raspberry Pi began a few years ago, the various communities need to support software.

It appears not to be "Ubuntu" (main distro) but actually Xubuntu (based on Xfce4). Xfce was probably the favorite desktop of the person who built this image. My advice would be to try it out as Lubuntu and Xubuntu are both light-weight distros with similar desktops.
