Installed Ubuntu via command line (only LTS version) .
To get the last version of the former distribution :

Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Install new LTS :

Code:
sudo do-release-upgrade

During the process, sometimes asked whether to leave old config files, manually modified. All ways leave the old files.

After the installation :
Code:
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoclean
sudo apt-get autoremove

Results,
positive :
The new installed Snap thunderbird took over former configurations (e-mail addresses, ...)
minidlna complete took over
former fstab settings complete took over
a.s.o. for further manually modified configuration files
PATH to yt-dlp (home) and yt-dlp itself took over
firefox : all bookmarks, configurations took over (but all ways I make a backup of the bookmarks)

negative :
(minor) sh-files, object opened via double click for gedit (text-editor) must be set

In former LTS versions, after "do-release-upgrade", I had to install the half of my applications, because no took over.

But now it is obviously significantly improved, well done !
