        @Ernst-Jan15 said in Some questions:

        how could this be an OS issue?

        I can't give you a definite answer, but the OSK question is complicated. It's currently quite a Ubuntu Touch only feature, that is, it's accessed through QT Apis using a plugin that is written specifically for Ubuntu Touch.

        One problem is that currently (it's worked on) the QT version on which UT is based is obsolete, so the official browser, Morph, has an 'old' engine that don't work with quite a few 'modern' web sites.

        So a few open source enthusiasts have written hacks to make browsers that don't support the UT apis natively use the UT OSK. These are not upstream patches that have been accepted to the standard browsers, that's packaging. LibreWolf for UT is not LibreWolf recompiled, it's LibreWolf with clever packaging.

        As such these solutions are inherently fragile. Also it's not worth much investing in making these hacks more robust, since goal is to avoid them altogether by making UT more receptive to alien architecture.

          Except that OSK for uWolf works on 24.04.1 for me and for @gpatel-fr , and probably many others, so if it does not work for you, and you're not running the stable version, then that's the first thing I would try.
