I personally use Odroid boards from Hardkernel, purchased from https://ameridroid.com/ - not a recommendation for a storefront, it's just the place that I use.

Not all of them have the same GPIO abilities as the Pi, so YMMV there. But if you're looking for a low-power SBC for a computing project, there are options, and most tutorials for software installations on RPi will also work for other flavors like Armbian and DietPi.

I think it's a combination of market forces (Broadcom not giving them as many CPUs) and the Pi Foundation concentrating more on their industrial customers.

Other manufacturers don't seem to be having any problem, you can buy Amlogic/Rockchip-based boards all day.
