It shouldn't be weird to want this.
The main web app I'm running turns 18 this year and has been continuously deployed, though we had to move Ubuntu LTS versions (can be a major pain) twice so far for essentially no reason other than lack of security patches.

I do not use Ubuntu as a personal distro, however I have a couple of test machines with it on.
Whenever I have to use it I remember why I do not use it. Just tried to do-release-upgrade and it quickly fell apart and left me with a system that prints this when I try and run apt
apt: symbol lookup error: apt: undefined symbol: _ZN3APT6Solver14InternalCliWhyB5cxx11ER11pkgDepCacheN8pkgCache11PkgIteratorEb, version APTPKG_7.0

I know nothing about Debian, does it have something that’s comparable to Ubuntu LTS for server use?

The moment you realize you only got about a year left to replace/upgrade a server running Ubuntu 22.04 at your parents' place
(the reason I say replace first is that, because these major updates can be pretty messy, my approach is to stay on the same LTS and reinstall or physically replace servers as I see fit)
