ongoing security and critical fixes for a period of 5 years. The
standard support period is now nearing its end and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
will transition to Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) on May 29,
2025.
Users are encouraged to evaluate and upgrade to our latest 24.04 LTS
release via 22.04 LTS. The supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 20.04
LTS is via Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Instructions and caveats for the upgrades

Since its launch in October 2004, Ubuntu has become one of the most
highly regarded Linux distributions with millions of users in homes,
schools, businesses and governments around the world. Ubuntu is Open
Source software, costs nothing to download, and users are free to
customise or alter their software in order to meet their needs.
