It was around 3 years ago. I haven't touched any ARM board ever since. We specifically used OrangePi zero. The armbian at the time had thermal management problems to the point the boards would straight up fry to a brick. I remember there was an update that fixed the thermal problem but it would corrupt the SD card once in about five reboots. And it really didn't solve the thermal problems. They'd get hot enough to be unresponsive. So the clever decision by management was to add a fully self designed avr based board to periodically poll the device on one of the GPIO pins and somehow reboot the OrangePi if it didn't respond. So reboots were common and SD cards only lasted 1 month tops.
