FWIW, Pop OS just updated to the 6.6 kernel.
Interesting! I've used Linux Mint for the last 5+ years (and am using the Xanmod kernel, which is on 6.6), but have always been Pop OS curious. This increases my curiosity, I may have to give it a go on my laptop.

As did Alpine in 3.19
In fedora 38 and 39, just update.
