Windows 10 is spyware.

 

Thanks but was already off

 

Keep googling!

 

It looks like that you have missed the 18.04 long term support version.

 

I believe LTS comes out every 4 years and every two years the version is called Short Term Support... ? Oh, my bad. I don't know why I thought that. I started with 12.04 then upgraded to 16.04 and was waiting for 20.04 and now that I know 18 and all other even years is an LTS release year, I guess I will still just wait for 20.04 to upgrade. I will have a new computer or two by then anyway.

Ubuntu LTS release every two years. In between are short term support versions, issued every six months.
