[Ubuntu 21.04](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-04-release/) 运行良好、添加了有趣的功能，也包括一些值得注意的变化，如 [对多显示器的改进](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-04-multi-monitor-support/)、用户界面的改进、支持 GNOME 40 的应用程序等等。


现在，是时候升级了。


Ubuntu 21.04 的更新支持在本周，即 **1 月 20 日** 结束。


你将不再收到任何关于 Ubuntu 21.04 系统的更新。如果你一直在使用 Ubuntu 或其某种风格，如 Ubuntu MATE，你需要将你的系统升级到 Ubuntu 21.10。


顺便提一句，Ubuntu 的非 LTS 版本维护期为 9 个月。如果你是 Linux 的新手的话，我建议你了解一下 [Ubuntu 发布周期](https://itsfoss.com/end-of-life-ubuntu/)。


所以，现在你必须升级到 Ubuntu 21.10，然后再为 2022 年 7 月的另一次升级做好准备。不过，这样你的时间就充裕多了！


### 升级到 Ubuntu 21.10


除非你有一个没有连接到互联网的系统，并且你希望它继续使用 Ubuntu 21.04，否则建议你现在就升级。


在没有任何更新的情况下，你的系统将继续受到新的安全风险的影响。所以，在做决定之前要记住这一点。


[Ubuntu 21.10](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-10-release/) 引入了许多变化，包括 GNOME 40、[Linux 内核 5.13](https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-5-13-release/)、对高质量蓝牙音频编解码器的支持、暗色/浅色主题等等。


所以，你可能要开始考虑你的升级选择了。


你可以继续使用 Ubuntu，升级到 21.10。如果你考虑用不同的东西进行全新安装，也可以尝试像 [Pop!\_OS 21.10](https://news.itsfoss.com/pop-os-21-10/) 这样的发行版。


不要忘了，还有各种的 Ubuntu 的风格版呢。


要开始升级，你只需要搜索 “<ruby> 软件更新器 <rt>  Software Updater </rt></ruby>” 并点击它，让它寻找升级并通知你。


无论你有什么发行版，软件更新器或你的软件中心应该给你提供升级选项，或者你可以在系统设置中找到它。


而且，然后按照屏幕上的指示，再点击几下就可以进行升级过程了。


重要的是，为了安全起见，在执行升级之前要备份你的必要数据。


在一些像 Ubuntu MATE 这样的版本中，你也可以选择使用终端，输入以下命令开始升级：



```
sudo do-release-upgrade

```

### 通往 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 之路


Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 的 [预期功能列表](https://itsfoss.com/ubuntu-22-04-release-features/) 应该不会让你失望。因此，你可以在它发布时轻松地升级到它，或者留在 Ubuntu 21.10 上，等待 7 月份支持结束时升级。


你是否期待着 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 在今年 4 月的发布？或者，你愿意坚持使用 Ubuntu 21.10 直到 2022 年 7 月？

[Ubuntu 21.04](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-04-release/) had a good run with interesting feature additions. Some notable changes included [multi-monitor improvements](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-04-multi-monitor-support/), UI enhancements, GNOME 40-ready applications, and more.

Now, it is time to upgrade!

The support for updates in Ubuntu 21.04 has finally come to an end today (January 20th).

You will no longer receive any updates to your Ubuntu 21.04 system. If you have been using Ubuntu or any of its flavors like Ubuntu MATE, you need to upgrade your systems to Ubuntu 21.10.

In case you did not know, Ubuntu’s non-LTS releases are maintained for nine months. I recommend you to learn about [Ubuntu release cycles](https://itsfoss.com/end-of-life-ubuntu/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), if you are new to Linux.

So, now that you have to upgrade to Ubuntu 21.10, you will have to be ready for another upgrade in July 2022. But, for that, you have plenty of time!

## Upgrading to Ubuntu 21.10

Unless you have a system that is not connected to the internet, and you want it to keep using Ubuntu 21.04, it is recommended that you upgrade now.

Your system will remain vulnerable to new security risks without any updates. So, keep that in mind before making a decision.

[Ubuntu 21.10](https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-10-release/) introduced many changes, including GNOME 40, [Linux Kernel 5.13](https://news.itsfoss.com/linux-kernel-5-13-release/), support for high-quality Bluetooth audio codecs, dark/light theme, and more.

So, you might want to start considering your upgrade options!

You can continue with Ubuntu 21.10 upgrade. Or, you can also try distributions like [Pop!_OS 21.10](https://news.itsfoss.com/pop-os-21-10/), if you consider a fresh installation with something different.

Not to forget, there are plenty of Ubuntu flavors as well!

To start the upgrade, all you need to do is search for “**Software Updater**” and click on it to let it look for the upgrade/notify you.

No matter what distribution you have, the software updater or your software center should give you the upgrade option, or you can look for it in the system settings.

And, then follow the on-screen instructions to proceed with the upgrade process in a few more clicks.

It is important to back up your necessary data before performing the upgrade, just to be on the safe side.

On some flavors like Ubuntu MATE, you can also prefer to use the terminal and type in the following command to start the upgrade:

`sudo do-release-upgrade`


## The Road to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS should not disappoint you with its [list of expected features](https://itsfoss.com/ubuntu-22-04-release-features/?ref=news.itsfoss.com). So, you can easily upgrade to it when it releases or hang on to Ubuntu 21.10 to end support in July.

*Are you looking forward to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS as soon as it releases in April this year? Or, would you prefer to stick with Ubuntu 21.10 until July 2022?*
