=> ↺ Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Linux Mint 19.x users should upgrade as support ends this April - Neowin

This warning also goes out to users of other Ubuntu 18.04 LTS-based distributions, of which, there are many. Luckily, if your system runs Ubuntu 18.04 or distros based on this release, your system should also handle Ubuntu 22.04 LTS just fine and you’ll get newer packages.
