as they share the calamares installer used by Lubuntu. Ubuntu Unity currently still has ubiquity on its ISOs, but is expected to soon use calamares
As Ubuntu Studio is using the ubuntu-desktop-installer (not calamares) its issue is different (and whilst I noted & see talk about it, I can’t recall the bug/references currently otherwise I’d provide it here).
I split out the specific conversation about debs in Noble, but the following was also mentioned by @malsabku and should be retained as it’s on-topic here.
General issues:
The discrepancy between noble and noble-proposed is currently enormous. Most of GNOME 46 is stuck in noble-proposed and you can’t install them because of the dependency problems. I hope this will be fixed soon.
Firmware Updater:
the Firmware Updater should be in the “Utilities” category in the App Grid, because it’s not an application that you use everyday
maybe it’s functionality should be directly integrated into the App Centre so you don’t need a separate app (but this is out of the scope for Ubuntu 24.04)
software-properties does not work so I don’t know how to add proposed in my ubuntu sources, please help:

App Folders isn’t something the Desktop Team traditionally pays too much attention to, but Edubuntu pays very close attention to, so that’s something we will definitely be doing.

Hello,
like for the latest release, I couldn’t use the “Try” option in my language.
I saw by then that it was a bug, but apparently not a blocker.
Not enabling people to try Ubuntu in their language is no problem? How accessible is this?
