I do not get the feeling that it's "well and truly dead" at all from the thread; at least not yet. It seems very much still in the "people are working hard to put it to rest" stage.

I asked openSuse and it does not sound as if they are planning to retire Qt 5 soon [1]:

I agree with Ben that we should try to drop Qt 5 in CI. It is a chicken and egg problem. The projects don't feel any pressure to finally move to Qt 6 thus the numbers don't get down.
What about Krita, is there a Qt 6 release available?
