Canonical has a commercial ESM (extended security maintenance) thing which gives 5 more years of security-focused backports of key parts of the distro if you want to pay for that.
- necovek 5y agoYes, I remember when it was introduced in 2017 when precise (12.04) was going EOL. However, the uptake was so good that it was soon bundled in the regular Ubuntu support contracts, and I see it's available for free for a limited number of machines today (3 iirc, like Ubuntu Livepatch). Maybe it is the driver for enterprises to get Ubuntu paid support today, but doesn't seem like it feom the outside.
