Hi, do you need additional information, to the information available via the Internet? That's what I've found: "20.04 End of Standard Support April 2025 End of Life April 2032 22.04 End of Standard Support June 2027 End of Life April 2034" https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases "Expanded Security Maintenance (ESM) Ubuntu Base OS security coverage, Security updates for applications and toolchains in the Universe repository, Kernel Livepatch Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa) Until 2030 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) Until 2032" https://ubuntu.com/security/esm "Main [...] the Ubuntu security and distribution team are willing to support. When you install software from the main component, you are assured that the software will come with security updates and that commercial technical support is available from Canonical. Restricted [...] Please note that it may not be possible to provide complete support for this software because we are unable to fix the software ourselves [...] Universe [...] Canonical does not provide a guarantee of regular security updates for software in the universe component, but will provide these where they are made available by the community. Users should understand the risk inherent in using these packages. Popular or well supported pieces of software will move from universe into main if they are backed by maintainers willing to meet the standards set by the Ubuntu team. Multiverse [...] This software is not supported and usually cannot be fixed or updated. Use it at your own risk." https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories It might be interesting for how long kernel.org does support the kernels https://www.kernel.org/ and for how long the Civil Infrastructure Platform (CIP) provides support https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/civilinfrastructureplatform/start .
