What's next, or what issues have been resolved?

I understand that it's time-consuming—and often impossible—for developers to document what progress has been made.
But for “regular” users who are eagerly awaiting progress, it’s not easy to stay on board without such updates.
Perhaps the lead developers could at least publish a brief summary of the new features once a month.
This would also help demonstrate that Ubuntu Touch is making steady progress and is far from being abandoned.

Hello,
There is a roadmap about Lomiri (one for Ubuntu Touch and one for Debian) here: https://ubports.com/lomiri-roadmap

You can also get news in the blog section : https://ubports.com/blog

There is a live Q&A session on YouTube, where developers talk about recent progress every two weeks. You can read what was said here: https://ubports.com/blog
There are also other posts there that may interest you.

Basicly the replies here will be "go figure! All the info is there".

Why so negative?

The roadmap (ubports DOT com/lomiri-roadmap) covers Lomiri's packaging journey into Debian —
historical milestones since 2020 and two vague estimates for Lomiri on Debian desktop.
There is no roadmap for Ubuntu Touch itself. No page that says "here is where the OS
stands, here is what we are working toward." It does not exist.

Of course it exists: there are two tabs on this page, https://ubports.com/lomiri-roadmap one tab for Debian and one tab for Ubuntu Touch.
And so it easy to find this content about Ubuntu Touch in the coming months:

Q1 2026
(estimated)
Morph Browser upgrade
The Qt6 upgrade gets kicked off by upgrading the QtWebEngine in Ubuntu Touch, getting the Morph Browser up-to-date and compatible with modern web standards.

Q2 2026
(estimated)
Full Qt6 Migration
The internal codebase catches up to Debian upstream, finally modernizing Ubuntu Touch and getting ever closer to total convergence.

Q2 2026
(estimated)
Upgrading to Mir 2.x
Internally, Lomiri on Ubuntu Touch still runs on an older version of Mir. This upgrade finally allows for Mir's new optimizations to be possible on Ubuntu Touch and gets the codebase ready to become one with Debian.

Everytime there's a new release (OTA update), there's a post here and a blog that lists notable changes and improvements. You can also check merge requests in the Gitlab repos if you want to get more real time changes.
