There’s also an official blog post on AAP 2.6 (What’s new in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6) which looks a bit like there are new features in the AWX part (and not just in other parts). Since I am not familiar with AWX, I have no idea whether that’s really the case though.

Thanks for getting involved with this concern!
I had another meeting with Red Hat today, and the Ansible SME confirmed that they stopped pushing fixes upstream ever since they rearchitected AAP from AWX’s “monolithic architecture” to a modern, more efficient solution.
Red Hat AAP is deprecating their RPM installer (dropping it as of v2.7 next year), so the only supported installs going forward will be via OpenShift or Podman.
I asked about K8s support, and was told that only some specific customers get support exceptions for these kinds of installs.
