There are only two communities which we know which are alive for the Orange Pi 5 & Mango Pi Quad, and these are mainly developer communities:
The armbian forum for the Orange Pi 5:
https://forum.armbian.com/forum/206-orange-pi-5-5b-5-plus/
There the forum master deleted our posts and has banned us from the armbian forum. Is this a sign that armbian will be dead soon, too, and Ubuntu on the Orange Pi 5 is the future?
The Mango Pi forum:
https://forum.mangopi.org/latest
Has an interesting journal about Debian Bookworm on the MangoPI quad:
https://forum.mangopi.org/t/journal-debian-bookworm-build-for-mangopi-quad-h616/2260
The Raspberry Pi forum:
https://forums.raspberrypi.com
is quiet large and alive for comparison. Users can check there if Raspberry Pi Inc. is already bancrupt or not.
