<![CDATA[Any news on 20.04 on N5?]]>Will N5 make it into 20.04 or not? Any plans to port it? Maybe even ongoing efforts? Replies from the maintainers are highly appreciated.

i think for new users who are learning about the devices page this could be relevant....

Oh yes, it certainly is. And this needs to be changed. But changes like this one don't make themselves.

I had bought it in 2020 to install Ubuntu Touch, since it was clearly promoted as a reference phone from UBports.
I'm waiting for official confirmation of its discontinuation before getting a new one (OnePlus5, or Redmi Note 9 Pro).

But who knows...? Maybe some good news can come to us?
That said, it is clear that this device is 10 years old this year and that no custom rom still supports it to my knowledge....

the N5 is marked as first choice device

Yes, but you need to realise that this marking is very old and no longer particularly relevant. It does not outweigh the much more recent information from Cibersheep: the device is old and the port needs people.

I've ported focal to OpO, with quite some stuff working. If anybody wants to fork my work for the N5 they're free to do so from my GitHub. (github.com/muhammad23012009)

I don't think it will end up getting ported to Focal, unless someone outside of the usual suspects does some heavy lifting in a porting effort (which entails the arduous task of backporting systemd into the kernel, just for starters). A nine year life span for a smart phone is about as long as one can hope for these days, but probably time to put these beloved devices into their final resting places.

So maybe this can be resumed for a migration to 20.04, that I don't know... (?)

I am also interessted for answers. It would be nice to know which devices are going to be left behind after 20.04. Should be mentioned in Devices.io. Even if nexus 5 will not get 20.04, will it at least get further more updates? It is kind of a legend and worth it to be continued...thanks for listenings. Sorry my english is worse, hope you get what I mean.
