        I am wondering, if it it is the time to upgrade my Oneplus 5 to focal and I dare to ask @Flohack for his opinion: Is it already a good idea? and if yes, which way would you recommend?
        Happy Easter by the way!

          @messayisto I would use the installer and tick the wipe data to get a fresh start (save any data beforehand). Focal is okay on the op5 and 5t. I am slowly migrating my device's to it from Xenial. OTA-25 has kind of pushed me to make the jump.

          Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...
          I have too many devices...

            One thing to remember the OP5/5T still needs the installer to install updates to the OS. So if you don't want to do that daily go for RC or Stable and avoid devel.

              @messayisto Hmm .. I had to go back to Xenial because half my apps weren't on the open store in Focal. Especially UBsync, although that is apparently ready very soon**. But also UT Tweak tool and various other web apps.

                Regarding the missing web apps, you might like to have a look at Webber.

                  Had no problem with update to focal stable today.
                  Oneplus 5T.
                  Simple started it inside the Phone.
