Depends on where the computer is at, I guess. On a desk, 6 years is a pretty long time. In an industrial setting, 6 years is not very long of a lifecycle.

- dathinab 3y agoconsider that it's 6 years after release of the kernel version so likely <5 years since release of the hardware in the US likely <4 years since release of hardware outside of the US likely <3 years since you bought the hardware and if you buy older phones having only a year or so of proper security updates is not that unlikely So for phones you would need more something like a 8 or 10 year LTS, or well, proper driver updates for proprietary hardware. In which case 2 years can be just fine because in general/normally only drivers are affected by kernel updates.
