hard agree on a more durable support forum of some kind. i've had to download and grep entire matrix channel logs to see if anyone's had similar problems in the past -

@adrianyyy @cas @fossdd @z3ntu @newbyte @lanodan @pabloyoyoista i see that as a path to a joyless, almost obsessive insistence on sticking to a few select devices then community has declared 'chosen ones'
if I was told "work on OP6 or do pine64's job for them", I'd sooner leave. not why I'm here, and I'd rather the project have clear messaging on that
a contributor feeling comfortable enough to play around with a device is the on-ramp to having them work on more things in the future. sure, they may become unmaintained, but I don't see that as unreasonable as long as expectations are set accordingly
granted some stick around and some don't, but them's the breaks with all FOSS projects, the kernel complains about drive by commits often enough
