Hi E,
I'm CCing this on the ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com list because
that's where it would've been more appropriate as Ubuntu Studio is
supposed to be a team project, and joining that list and sending there
would've been more appropriate and would not have gone unnoticed. I'm
not the only person who does anything with this, I just happen to be the
leader. You can join that list at
https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel.
In addition, we highly encourage participation on irc.libera.chat in the
#ubuntustudio-devel chatroom, as well as #ubuntustudio and
#ubuntustudio-offtopic if you feel so inclined.
As far as updating from 18.04 (all Ubuntu releases are yy.mm and there
are two per year, so specifying yy is imprecise) to 20.04, that's not a
good idea as 18.04 of Ubuntu Studio is *LONG* end-of-life, and 20.04 of
Ubuntu Studio went end-of-life in April since Ubuntu Studio only
supports for 3 years on its LTS releases like all Ubuntu flavors that
are not directly supported by Canonical.
Therefore, what you want to do is update to 22.04, but since 18.04 went
EOL back in January 2019 for Ubuntu Studio (it wasn't an LTS for Ubuntu
Studio for many reasons), and 18.04 for Ubuntu in general left standard
support in April of this year, you'll have to do what's called an
End-Of-Life upgrade. You'll be able to find instructions for that here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
However, if you would like to participate in development, I'd encourage
testing and running the latest development release which is 23.10 beta
currently. We go into Final Freeze this Thursday in anticipation of
23.10's release on October 12. So far, most everything has been
ironed-out, and I'm just watching Ubuntu's kernel team get the kernel
tested for some fixes that are affecting USB and JACK interaction, even
under PipeWire.
So, at this point, it's all testing all the time. The more eyes, the
better. Glad to hear that you find it reliable, and would love to
welcome you to the team!
Erich

Hello Erich;
My name is E. I use an alias on here because of security issues I am
having with local internet and its causing my ubuntu to not load right
on top of issues.
So now I can't update from 18 to 20. I need some help. I did a bunch
of stuff last night and I want to contribute mabey with doing this bug
trouble shoot with you then I can write about it steppig me up in the
community.
Thanks for the help and consideration. I would like to over come all
gov. and exterior private organization tracking andd viewing of my
online traffic and my own systems. I am an ubuntu studio user and have
several cloud spaces that I am trying to get through the massive
learning curve but am on Ubuntu for day to day use of my systems,
Microsoft cause I like V.S Code and google because they are very good at
what they do.
I also have other parts of my cloud as well and its just daunting all
the info. The choices have costed me because there are just to many
good things to work with as far as packaging.
I am also an environementalist that believes in inovative businesss
savving the earth with the will for the greater good of all men in
heart including honesty and fair trade. I enjoy massive public events
and have banner space I am building and interested in sugestions for
server and AI archetecture and will of course that is availabele in kind
to Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio.
But any ways back to the bug issue its just something small - I might
have it figured before I talk to you but just thought I would introduce
my self - good job - great product for the time piece! Amazing and
seemingly very good and reliable.
