Let me get this straight, you're on a version released 6 years ago and complaining it's not supported anymore?

?. This comment makes no sense, why can't you upgrade Ubuntu? You don't have access to root?

[yjftsjthsd-h]

Why are you stuck? Ubuntu supports updating over major versions.

[aborsy]

Sounds like your problem, not canonical’s!

Which other distro still supports a release from 2018 without paying for support?

[jhasse]

Rocky Linux / AlmaLinux (or CentOS before them) offer 10 years of support and they are free.

Purely anecdata, but I've lost count just how many Ubuntus (more accurately Debian and derivatives, I guess?) I've murdered in cold blood with sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade.
