I just want the Manjaro Arm to not fizzle the gui's and run Firefox at speeds faster than 1980s era internet...

Or any desktop distro, even gnome or ubuntu

YouTube serves VP9 video (and more recently a lot of AV1) and I think the Pis only have hardware accelerated decoding of H.264/5 as it stands today

this is why h264ify is a pre-installed extension in RPiOS' builds of browsers.

made sense, until the Pi 5 dropped h264 hw decode. still waiting for a good explanation of that.

It's a good thing projects like Armbian are steadily improving support for Rockchip-based SBCs, to open up the market beyond Raspberry.
