      Yes, but eventually that LTS goes EOL and you’ll have to move from that abandonware.

        Ubuntu LTS versions can last 10-12 years before EOL.

          Yes, 10-12y to swim, slowly in-taking chlorine overtime…
          Then when you do finally switch, you find yourself in a similar yet vastly different swimming pool and the cycle starts over.
          Imagine when eventually the LTS goes Wayland only and Luddites go : “I’mma just stay with my abandonware forever.”
          Luddites hate adapting to new technology as a character trait, it’s what makes them a Luddite.
          Luddites will often choose to deal with decrepit, vulnerable, abandonware then change to something new because they don’t want to spend a week learning new “muscle memory”.
