   Hello Fedi!
   My RaspberryPi4B just died (8 green blinks on boot, seems to mean "SDRAM Failure").

   I'm looking for an alternative with the following requirements:

   • Similar price range than the RPi4B 8GB
   • Similar or better hardware specs
     • Has an ethernet port, SD/MicroSD card, at least 2 USB ports.
     • At least 8GB RAM
   • Compatible with Debian and Docker (so ideally arm64).

   :boosts_ok: :dragn_heart:

   #raspberrypi #raspberrypi4

     @Soblow pine64 are kind of a joke though they prioritize manjaro for some reason, youd be better off ordering bananapi or orangepi or something chinese

     @meso From what the website says, it doesn't seem to support more than 4GB RAM
     https://pine64.org/devices/rockpro64/

     Featuring up-to 4GB of LDDDR4 RAM

     @snacks @meso I'd really like to keep a Debian to be honest.
     I'm okay with experimenting on my personal computers, but I'd really want my personal server to have an OS as stable as possible, and Debian is my go-to for this.

     @Soblow @snacks honestly it's not about stability, Manjaro is just a bad distro, Arch is plenty stable but manjaro adds a bunch of duct tape spaghetti code that is really unnecessary and just messes with your configuration flow. Arch is plenty stable, I even use it on servers. wouldn't use Manjaro for anything tho

     @Soblow @snacks pine64 however decides to prioritize it for all of the devices they release, server, desktop or mobile. absolute idiots i guess that's what connections do

     @meso @Soblow they used to ship their stuff with debian modified to work with it, but that was even worse than the manjaro community stuff. I think it started when they released the pbp
