Cool, glad you know that. Were you also aware that by running Linux Mint, you are tied to Ubuntu LTS releases? This would mean major revisions in software upgrades only come with next major releases of Mint. So that leaves you with flatpaks, snaps, or PPA repositories, or building it yourself. LTS releases designed this way so that you run known stable versions of pretty much everything. Switching to a rolling release distro would bring you what you want more quickly, but at the cost of more potential hiccups… but I say potential, because problems might never arise.
