Is anyone working on converging a bit more with other mobile Linux platforms? For example by adding Flatpak support for apps?

Hello everyone ,

I'd love to upgrade to Noble but I'm having doubt, so I have a few questions :

From what I understood from previous Q&A many apps won't be available on Noble, is that true ? How can we see which apps are available or not on Noble ?
Is that possible to revert back to Focal if Noble is problematic for my usage ?
Is Noble more greedy on ressources than Focal (because I have a Pixel 3aXL and it's sometimes laggy on Focal) ?
What problems can I expect if I stay on Focal ?
Is there an upgrade on the kernel when we go from Focal to Noble ? And if so which kernel is shipped on Noble ?

Thanks a lot for the impressive work . I believe Linux mobile has a bright future considering Google is making a lot of move toward more lockdown on Android and therefore creating problems for customs FOSS android ROM / AOSP forks.

@UBportsNews
First of all, a huge thank you to those who contribute to the development of UT, its community, and the porting of new devices. You are exceptional!
Would it be possible, as Felix and Sander started to do, to create sessions, webinars, or videos to explain application development under UT?
How to get started and also progress in application or UT development, how to deal with the changes linked to Noble release, with the futur use of QT6, and so one.
Thanks for reading.
