I've fast tested some other images. Didn't do any serious fixing attempts, just to see, what you get out of the box.
I tried a couple of ayufan's images. They are faster than KDE neon, but I couldn't make hw acceleration work.
The DietPi image is the fastest among these tested images, but I failed to make internet connection work for my router (WPA2), so I didn't even bother to see if hw acceleration works.
The Manjaro KDE and LXQT versions are lacking hw acceleration support too.
Now I'm on latest KDE neon image, here (and also on the default shipped version) GPU acceleration is somehow working. I also managed to set up MPV player, to use video GPU acceleration using vdpau, but currently without OSD support, so no subtitles or GUI playback elements (this I have to try to make work yet). Sadly the video cannot be currently accelerated in browsers, so in firefox I use send to SMplayer plugin, to open HTML5 video streams in MPV player.
