You may be interested to hear that in the soon-to-be released moOde 8, the Audio Config screen has been improved to
As well, the kernel and its drivers have been bumped to v5.15.23-v7+
Support other OSes? Any hacker can fork moOde's code repository and have a go. It should work mutatis mutandi. That's a lovely Latin phrase which more or less means "once all the necessary changes have been made" without committing to a statement of what those changes actually are. T.B.D. when the attempt is made.
For example, I and at least one other user tried porting a much earlier release of moOde to a different ARM-based SBC as well as distro. In my case it was a SolidRun CuBox-i4Pro and the Armbian distro. It worked in the sense that I could play music (only to USB devices, no I2S interface is present) but it was a pain finding work-arounds to account for the differences from an RPi and the Raspbian OS of the time. Supporting the result in the long term would have been a nightmare as the different distros evolved in their own fashions. I patted myself on the back and moved on.

- unify the output device selection (I2S or USB device) on one page
- allow the selection of an I2S driver by device name (as it is now) or by actual driver overlay name
As well, the kernel and its drivers have been bumped to v5.15.23-v7+
