If Radxa would slow down their rollout of another new hardware board with vastly different target markets every month or so, they could wind up with a few really well-supported boards.
But as it is, you have to love tinkering with Linux or reading things across forums, blog posts, GitHub issues, and Discord to get a given Radxa board going nicely. It can be done, but it still takes too much effort for many.
idk but sounds like they might be run by designers and also they might be outsourcing PCBA. Just doing one batch simplifies operations by a lot. Not that I think it's commendable to do so...
