I want to be able to buy ARM boards like I'm buying ITX PC boards. I don't want a special build of Linux from the SBC OEM, I don't want weird bootloaders, firmware and other embedded-like stuff. I just want an ARM-based PC board for my desktop and server closet (so Ampere stuff is out of the picture unfortunately).

The O6 runs mainline pretty good, only hiccups I know of are gpu acceleration and the npu.

Qualcomm has been upstreaming kernel support for their chips recently, so I'm hopeful.

Yeah, I want edk2 uefi and mainline linux support at least for most functions (dont care about npu for example)
