        Why continue developing inherited Lomiri on Mir (which has pivoted to IoT/embedded) instead of adopting KDE Plasma Mobile or Phosh and contributing mobile-specific customizations upstream to benefit the entire Linux mobile ecosystem?
        KDE has maintained Plasma desktop for 25+ years, created the Qt/Kirigami framework that scales perfectly between mobile and desktop, and continues massive improvements through 2024-2025 (they're basically saints of the FOSS community at this point). Wouldn't contributing to their mobile effort multiply your impact rather than maintaining a legacy Unity8 fork alone?

          This kind of questions could be asked in the Q and A topic, and then you'd get answered by the developers themselves...

          And please use the right sections to post threads.
          Also you don't need to make one topic per question.

            @Keneda I posted the list of my questions there now. But I open separate posts for questions to open a discussion, hopefully, if there will be anyone interested to discuss. I will post them in general now.

            Thank you!
