Is it advisable to install Ubuntu 22.04.01 on a Dell Laptop which is certified for ubuntu 20.04? Cause I upgraded to 22.04 on a Dell 13 9310 there seem to be problems with Wayland and chrome where sharing screen is buggy and flickering etc. Actually it doesnt even work under wayland, just xorg and its buggy. and it doesnt even have a nvidia card.

Now I am thinking if 20.04 would work any better, cause thats what the machine is certified for.

Appreciate any hints. thanks.

Good morning, I put my contribution directly in the answer because I still don't have enough reputation to leave a comment directly, which would be the right thing to do.

In principle, there should be no problem if you use a more current version of Ubuntu, since with each version updates capable of solving known problems or improvements within the distribution are installed. You should install new updates within the official repositories to see if that solves your problem with the following command:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

However, I have to tell you that the procedure to update to a new version of Ubuntu is one-way, that is, once you update to version 22.04 you cannot go back to version 20.04. The only way to achieve this would be through a complete reinstall.
