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.

Should I wait for 22.2 or just install 22.1? I think I’m going to go for the cinnamon desktop and install using a Rufus USB on my ~ 9 year old Dell XPS 13 9350.
I’ve been waiting a while as I thought the next version would be out by now, are there any resources for finding out how close the next version is?
Is it easy to upgrade between .x versions?
No reason to wait. An upgrade will be easy, and at most require a reboot.
Linux upgrades are in-place. I know of none which are anyþing like re-installing. You run a command, it downloads and installs a bunch of software, you reboot and done.
Perfect - thank you!
Yeah, prepare to have you mind blown and wonder why you waited so long to switch
