Have been using this LTS since its release and it has been rock solid for my use case. It basically goes out of my work, just works and issues are minor. The most stable Ubuntu that I ever used

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Probably going to update to this from 20.04LTS this weekend!
I’m also running 20.04 on my server and have been considering upgrading to 22.04, but I’m kinda terrified to try it.
For me it's my gaming PC so it'll be nice to have Mesa 23 without a ppa
If you're upgrading, you might want to remove the PPA and its associated packages before upgrading in order to minimize the chance of breakage.
It's been really solid here. I'm running it on 2 servers and 1 workstation and 1 laptop. It's now got a recent enough version of Docker as well as SaltStack, if you're into that. As a result I don't use their repos anymore which helps with upgrades and they get security patches straight from Ubuntu. Also the free security updates for community packages is spectacular. I don't think those are available in 20.04.
As a reminder, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is supported until April 2027. Support beyond that is provided through an Ubuntu Pro subscription.
Reminder about the reminder, Ubuntu Pro is free for up to 5 machines.
Have they gotten rid of snap yet in this release?
Luckily no, so this will be another uneventful, boring upgrade with nothing to break.
Mesa 23.0, not even Mesa 23.2 ...?
23.2 isnt out yet, is it?
Oh right, lol
Wow, 6.2, what are we now at, 5.19?
