    > Can you give a bit more details on this issue?

    It is an issue with HW limits. Videocore VI hw only supports up to 4 multiple render targets.

    For OpenGL ES that is enough, as the minimum value for GL_MAX_DRAW_BUFFERS is 4 (see table 6.27 on OpenGL ES 3.0 spec).

    But for OpenGL 3.0 that is not enough, as the minimum value for GL_MAX_DRAW_BUFFERS is 8 (see table 6.51 on OpenGL 3.0 spec).

    An uneducated guess is as good as taking a shit on the keyboard and let the feces do the talk.

    Zink on V3DV allows for OpenGL 2.1 support to be exposed, which is the maximum desktop OpenGL version supported by the Raspberry Pi hardware
    Wait, what? I always thought the GPU supported OpenGL 4.x. It's kinda weird to me that it doesn't support it but supports Vulkan (not saying that supporting Vulkan is bad thing of course). I'm just genuinely surprised.
