I really hate this architecture. Alpine Linux’s upstream aarch64 doesn’t work with this laptop, so I have to use postmarketOS, an Alpine derivative, instead. I do like pmOS — on phones — but I would definitely prefer to use Alpine upstream for a laptop use-case. That being said, the Pine community has been doing a very good job of working on getting support for their devices upstream, and the situation has been steadily improving. I expect that one of the next batches of PBPs will include an updated u-Boot payload which will make UEFI booting possible, and Linux disros with the necessary kernel patches upstreamed will be shipping in the foreseeable future. This will alleviate most of my ARM-based grievances. +Let me get the bad parts out of the way upfront: ARM is still a nightmare to work with. I really hate this architecture.
