I would definetly support this project as the updates are in the right advanced way.
why don't you fix the issues on your Github even though they are acknowledged? I want to build on a more modern Ubuntu, 16.04 is no longer the current LTS.
Raise your concerns in discord.
Dev tems is very active in the discord channel rather than other channels or you can just wait response from OP during the publishement of the weekly updates.
