Hi Leah!
I think the RockPro64 [1] as well as the rockpi4 can be run without any binary blobs. Why I don't see any vendor considering ryf-certifiying devices based on them?

In fact, I'm interested in their product commercially for Minifree, and also interested in terms of Libreboot. You can replace the default uboot firmware with coreboot, which offers many more features and there's where my company could really offer some nice custom services.
It has been on TODO for Libreboot since May 2021: https://libreboot.org/tasks/#investigate-u-boot
It is mentioned here, in the context of u-boot specifically, but I'm aware that coreboot also supports it.
Also in your list of tasks you list ROCKPro64. Although I really like pine64 steps, I think the best rk3399 device for such a task is the Rock Pi 4 Model A Plus, it's got a faster processor, no wifi and the usb-c port is used for power only: no need to care about blobs for eDP! So, if you are thinking about a board to support, I'd suggest you to think about the Rock Pi 4 Model A Plus.
