It's the same, I picked up an Orange Pi 5 plus on sale and didn't even think about the kernel and module driver situation. It's rough. Joshua-Riek/ubuntu-rockchip and the other contributors do great work to un-fuck the situation and get a non-screwy ubuntu install cobbled together, but in the comments for issues even he gives off a "well, the situation is shit" sort of vibe.
I won't buy another rockchip sbc.

That's a shame.
