Quoting: What’s new in security for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS? —
We’re excited about the upcoming Ubuntu 24.04 LTS release, Noble Numbat. Like all Ubuntu releases, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS comes with 5 years of free security maintenance for the main repository. Support can be expanded for an extra 5 years, and to include the universe repository, via Ubuntu Pro. Organisations looking to keep their systems secure without needing a major upgrade can also get the Legacy Support add-on to expand that support beyond the 10 years. Combined with the enhanced security coverage provided by Ubuntu Pro and Legacy Support, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS provides a secure foundation on which to develop and deploy your applications and services in an increasingly risky environment. In this blog post, we will look at some of the enhancements and security features included in Noble Numbat, building on those available in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

In this post I run-through 20 of the biggest changes Ubuntu 24.04 LTS offers compared to the previous LTS — consider this an LTS to LTS feature spotting guide helping you take in the sights.
Of course, those of you who ride the short-term Ubuntu releases (as I do) will find most (not all) of what follows familiar.
But the majority of people who use Ubuntu use an LTS version.
And with 2 years worth of improvements on offer anyone making the upgrade from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04, the new long-term support release, inherits a cumulative change-set that enhances, expands, and emboldens every inch of the desktop experience.
