I love elementaryOS. Except for the kernel. That thing receives no updates.

It’s Ubuntu LTS beneath and I have had several kernel updates over the past year.
You can easily update using one of the Kernal sfor the upstream Uubuntu release using this tool: https://github.com/teejee2008/ukuu
Looks like this release does update the kernel.
I think elementary follows Ubuntu LTS, so you might get 20.04 later next year.
This is not true.

I'm running a 5.x kernal with latest Ubuntu hwe on Juno right now.

Kernal updates are slower, sure, but that is a feature for a lot of us.
