From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Must be fun to be done porting it to qt5 and realize qt6 is now the default. :)
Qt6 will be collecting bugfixes for another year yet. I'm not saying they should take another 5 years but there's no hurry.
Qt 6 has been out for more than three years now.
The amount of new bugs introduced since Qt 6 is embarassingly, staggeringly massive. It has only very recently started going down to where it is becoming usable. But every new release breaks something new so /shrug
