Someone said "its fine nobody uses this" and someone else gave the world's biggest slam dunk of "Ubuntu in 1 month" and your reply is that "not everyone does it". How far from the point can you be!
In the Linux world this is the worst possible scenario, distro with the largest adoption, LTS.
- Neywiny 7mo ago22.04 is still potentially more prevalent than 24.04 according to https://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/stats/stats_of_day-16.html?version=last#:~:text=April%2030%2C%202006,data%20are%20excluded%20from%20statistics)%20: https://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/stats/stats_of_day-16.html?ver... . 26.04 will take some time before it's largely adopted.
- ndsipa_pomu 7mo agoNot trying to downplay the importance of this, but the LTS versions aren't until the first point release, so 26.04.1 (typically six months or so after the release).
- electroly 7mo agoIs that true? I haven't heard that before. Do you have a link? Here's how they announced 24.04.0. It says LTS and doesn't mention anything about LTS coming in the .1 release: https://canonical.com/blog/canonical-releases-ubuntu-24-04-noble-numbat https://canonical.com/blog/canonical-releases-ubuntu-24-04-n...
- ndsipa_pomu 7mo agoI can't find any link, so I think I'm getting mixed up between what they consider LTS and when the upgrade tool starts prompting to upgrade. If you're on the 24.04 LTS, then you don't get prompted to upgrade until 26.04.1
