Hello community! Firstly, on behalf of the team and myself, I’d like to thank the UbuntuDDE Remix Community and our precious donors, patrons, sponsors, supporters and well-wishers for motivating and supporting us for our next release. This was pretty much a long wait for everyone of us, but finally we are now ready to launch our LTS release.
Personally, I’d like to thank Felix Yan (from Arch Linux), justforlxz (from Deepin), Hualet Wang (from Deepin), Dmitry Shachnev (Debian Developer and Ubuntu Developer), Jot Singh (mustang), my fellow UbuntuDDE core team and everyone else for always supporting and helping us throughout the journey.
And today, we’re back with our most awaited release, UbuntuDDE Remix 22.04 codenamed “jammy” (Jammy Jellyfish). Jammy is an LTS release which will have a long term support.

How do I do a dist upgrade from 20.04?
Do I simply type a “sudo do-release-upgrade” or there any special instruction for UbuntuDDE?
