The Qt Company Publishes 2021 Roadmap

Ubuntu 21.04 only have Qt 5, not Qt 6 in its repository.
Are there any Qt 6 apps out there?
The only Qt app that I use is VLC media player.

I thought you didn't like applications that looked “off”? You can say a lot about VLC, but it doesn't exactly stand out for looking integrated, not even on Qt DE's.

As independent Qt apps developer maybe, but as KDE/LxQt user you will use whatever KDE/LxQt pulls as build dependency in your distro. As the latter, I could care less what version runs underneath.

Also for individual Qt apps. I mean: if Qt 6.1, for example, introduces a feature that's not backwards compatible and a dev decides to make use of that feature, you're not going to make the app work on Qt 5 as an end user.

Yeah, I dislike that VLC and other Qt applications don't look like other applications. VLC is a good piece of software, its unfortunate it doesn't look prettier on default Ubuntu. I mostly use GNOME Totem though, but I have VLC installed too, sometimes it comes in handy.

That is unfortunately a feature of any application that wants to have a distinct look. It will end up looking distinct..
