Is there a live thread for Ukraine updates like the world news one on that dumpster fire of a service that shall not be named?

It's not real-time, but the Institute for the Study of War puts out very well-regarded daily updates on their site. They're very detailed and talk about both military and political developments, with bolded summary points at the top if you don't have time to read the whole thing. You can also subscribe to their RSS feed to stay up to date, which includes similar updates for Iran, Taiwan, and jihadist movements.

wait, there's an entire swath of territory north and west of Kharkiv that has no conflict?

Is Russia just doing things the hard way, or am I missing something

They initially tried invading south from Belarus towards Kyiv (remember the caravan?), but the offensive stalled out and was pushed back by mid-April; apart from occasional missile barrages the focus has been on the east ever since.
