hestiahacker - LTS for hardware is brutal. CPUs get discontinued all the time. The same is true for small board computers (SBCs). For example, the oDroid SBCs looked promising but they never got their kernel patches upstreamed nor did they port their patches forward to newer kernels. So you could only run them with an old kernel that's no longer supported. They ended up abandoning those models of hardware all together. Now they have new models. How long do you think they will support those? Probably not long.
