          @3arn0wl just waiting for QA (https://github.com/orgs/ubports/projects/8).

            I don't think we need to be too concerned about our ranking on Distrowatch. It's extremely subjective and seems pretty easy to game. "Number of page hits" isn't a good metric for much of anything.

              I agree it's not an especially significant ranking, and I also agree that it's not something to try to game by changing anything about what the project does. The page ranking does attract eyeballs though, as does the site in general, so I hope they will cover major news and big releases.

                I know it's not the be-all-and-end-all, @UniSuperBox, but I just, desperately, want to see this beautiful OS granted the recognition and attention is so rightly deserves.

                  @3arn0wl a big step for consecration of UT is when MIR will be fully implemented and operational, with all improvements linked, i think. So probably/certainly for OTA 9 i(we) hope (all).

                    @domubpkm We keep saying UT will be good when X, Y, Z happens...

                    Truth is: UT is pretty damn good now.

                        @libremax the last update is displayed as "2019-12-03 23:52 UTC" though.

                          That's probably only the project description.

                          Ranking is here: https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=popularity
                          And OTA14 release is announced there: https://distrowatch.com/?newsid=11071

                          So it looks updated.

                            Exactly, the ranking change continuously and the news updates are frequent but does not change the editing date of the project description.
