Well, actually... The LTS kernel with longest support before 6.15 is 6.1. It will be supported until December 2027 [1] which is a few months over 20 years after the last 486 CPU [2].

Cool, we’ll be able to say “Linux supports hardware for over two decades after it’s stopped being shipped”!

Thanks for the info, btw. (:
