I have a couple of these RK3588 boards and frankly the story there is mostly pretty good, a bit better than other SBCs.

Recent Linux kernels are feasible. I'm using mostly stock Debian.

I use one as a Jellyfin/Plex/Immich/NAS server thing. Jellyfin is able to use the GPU for video decode. It works really well.

The other one is in mini-ITX form factor and I use it as a local Forgejo runner for CI jobs, and some other things.

I've managed to get a fork of Llama.cpp running that uses the NPU in these devices to (modestly) run LLMs, even. No real advantage, but neat.

I am satisfied enough that I've put an order in for the Next from these guys. Which would bring the number of RK3588 devices in the house to 3.
