The latest version of Ubuntu LTS was 20.04 when this update was made, and now it's 22.04. Could the version be bumped without ill-effect?

I ask because I nearly immediately dismissed nvm as being unmaintained when I saw this before realizing it does receive regular updates. I realize this is an unreasonable conclusion, I just wanted to explain why I bothered opening this.

Just notice that there's problem to build the image right now, because nodejs 18 requires glibc 2.28 but Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't have it, I know that there're still some software doesn't support Ubuntu 22.04, maybe just update to Ubuntu 20.04 and do another update later?

2 years old is 2x better than 4 years old (I did the math haha)

I'm assuming you all already know this, but for the benefit of the casual observer - Ubuntu LTS versions are based on the year they were released and are released every 2 years. So Ubuntu 18.04 was 2018, 20.04 was 2020 and so on.
