From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Well, that's good news (thanks, it's really new to me)... there where long time nothing really to hear about that. But implementing an over 1.5 year old os? I'm sceptical...
This toot is a response to a very similar question from someone else.
Also keep in mind, LTS versions always offer 5 years of support, so the current PopOS 22.04 LTS will receive support until April 2027, and the new PopOS 24.04 LTS will receive updates until April 2029.
Its been SUUUPER stable on my systems. That and they are doing things slighly different than Ubuntu, which I really like.
To be fair, your "SUUUPER stable" is another person's "not really going anywhere"...
