@UBportsNews Hello! Some users testing the 24.04-2.x Beta are reporting that the On-Screen Keyboard (OSK) does not pop up inside desktop/XWayland applications (like Snaps). Are the fixes for the text-input-v3 protocols and Maliit environment variables expected to land before the July 13th stable release so Snaps can be 100% functional on touchscreens?

So... it's the end of June, which means holiday season is officially here! ️️
This time, I've got a slightly more personal question for everyone...

What are your plans for the holidays? Got any exciting adventures lined up? Exploring new places? Hiking mountains? Relaxing with family? Or perhaps skinny-dipping on the beaches of Spain?

Come on, share the juicy details with us! We'd love to hear what you're up to this summer. ️

@UBportsNews given that motorola was willing to partner with graphenos, what are your thoughts on the foundation reaching out to motorola?

@UBportsNews Is 24.04-2 supposed to be ready for click packages based on Qt 6 out of the box, i.e. without any Qt 6 related install_lib entries in clickable.yaml?

If so, the clickable docker images should probably be adapted to contain a Qt 6 dev environment (but this might have to be discussed with the clickable maintainers).

And a question regarding the lomiri-ui-toolkit snap: Any plans/timeline for lomiri-ui-toolkit-core26? DeltaTouch would really profit from Qt >= 6.6, but snap based on core24 only offers 6.4.
