It will support various Linux distributions, but naturally I’ll be seeing what BSD I can get on it too. I think it’ll be a fun project.
=> ↺ Linux Mint Upgrade Tool - Here’s How it Works
The Linux Mint team announced that they built a new utility to upgrade the Linux Mint’s significant versions. It’s called the “mintupgrade2”. It is currently under development and planned for upgrading to the major versions—for example, Linux Mint 20 to 21 and not the minor version upgrades.
Although you can upgrade the versions using the standard apt commands, the Mint team believes significant version upgrades are tricky. It would be difficult for the new users to perform a seamless upgrade because it involves the terminal and a set of complex steps with commands.
Moreover, the GUI is a wrapper with additional features to the mintupgrade program, which brings a set of pre-system checks and upgrade processes with a one-click Fix.
In addition, the mintupgrade checks basic checks whether you are connected to power, the system is up to date, disk space availability and many more features.

A list of 10 significant feature differences between Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS for folks transitioning from LTS to LTS.
If you are a Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Focal Fossa user and plan to upgrade or install the latest Ubuntu 22.04 LTS “Jammy Jellyfish”, this guide is for you. The primary aspect is there are significant and structural changes between these two LTS versions which is somewhat rare in terms of LTS releases. A lot changed if you compare the LTS releases in one go.
So, with that in mind, in this guide, we give you ten pointers that address the fundamental changes from an average user perspective and give you a heads-up before you try the new Jammy Jellyfish.

There are few people I’ve worked as closely with as Saman Bemel Benrud. We built a lot of stuff together at Mapbox, from iD to Mapbox Studio. But he was insistent that after this job, he was going to make games and comics. No more tech rocket ships.
He’s gone and done it. Saman, along with Micah Fitch and Tom Lubanovic, released Wilderplace today. It’s an endlessly creative turn-based adventure game.
