>but I'm willing to pay a premium for the excellent Linux compatibility and reliability. Yeah it is quite strange. Even the Vision Five 2 RISC-V has better software support than your usual ARM SBC. The big caveat is that the opensource drivers only support Vulkan but Imagination ™ has planned on releasing a Vulkan based OpenGL implementation. Of course application software support is worse than ARM because of recompilation but that is a trivial barrier. If the hardware is any good, distros and developers will compile their packages for the new ISA.

Sure. Except NUC has Intel inside, not ARM.

I don't think the VF2 Linux kernel patches are in mainline yet? Many ARM SBCs are in mainline.

  Not all patches are there, but an impressive amount[0] already is, despite how young this platform is. 0. https://rvspace.org/en/project/JH7110_Upstream_Plan https://rvspace.org/en/project/JH7110_Upstream_Plan
