Question about next update!

Hello!I read a news this morning and it says that Zorin OS will be updated to Ubuntu 24.04? Is this true?

Here is what I understood from the blog:

  • Zorin 17 is based on Ubuntu 22.04.

  • Ubuntu 22.04 is very nearly two-year-old release.

  • Ubuntu 22.04 is going to be replaced by Ubuntu 24.04 in the main Ubuntu os.

I don't think Zorin 17's base will change to 24.04, so my conclusion is Zorin 17 base will be stay Ubuntu 22.04

That didn't take long :smiley: Although to be fair the article doesn't actually mention anything about ZorinOS being updated, not sure why the association was made.

The Article is a little bit missunderstanding. The Article say that Zorin is based on Ubuntu 22. But Ubuntu 22 will get soon a newer Version: Ubuntu 24. That is all. The Way how the Text is built can suggest that Zorin will get this too. But that is not the Case. It is not so good formulated. I think that is the Reason why there stands ''However, it's based ...''.

You misread that a bit.
They meant that Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is being replaced by 24.04 LTS. NOT That Zorin would adopt a new LTS.
