Split Topic from LL5.4

The take away is - there is nothing NEW for this version beyond this date....As each day passes you'll become less and less secure...
As to when the last of the updates are removed from the repos; this may depend..
Having the older no longer used data, takes up space....
If you decide to spin up a new LL3.x next month will it get the last/recent updates?
- Even if so, its a false feeling there isn't anything new....
I hate to leave behind my mini.... but its had a good run.
Should you want to keep it hanging on (although without internet - where the vulnerabilities live)..
I would make a Systemback back up to be able to revert back to this last good state....
And/or have some type of other backup.. Clonezilla or the alike should you have the need...
Good Luck!!
