One of the biggest Ubuntu downstreams, Linux Mint, just put out its first point release to its Noble-based version too. This is the time when the more cautious type may consider upgrading. If you have an integrated Nvidia GPU that needs an Nvidia "Legacy" driver, you may want to hold fire – or even revert to an Ubuntu Jammy-based version.
