As other siblings said, they didn't upstream anything (having to install firmware from a random unmarked zip on a site is annoying), and also their controllers are badly made.

I used one for a panel I made, and it would bootloop constantly, until I added a big capacitor to the 5V rail. Pretty shoddy.
