What I can say for sure is that while an Ubuntu 14.04 user will
immediately be familiar with 24.04 if he jumps from one to the other, he
might find it faster or discover that it has prettier icons. Otherwise,
the applications he used in 14.04 will look and operate the same in the
new version, the interface will be the same, and the commands will not
have changed. He probably won't notice that his applications are now
Snaps or notice that pipewire is now the default instead of PulseAudio.

I certainly noticed when an update broke my sound output leaving only
Dummy to select. After screwing around for a couple of days I got
Bluetooth speakers since it could handle that.

And that's an improvement unnoticed by those who can't find anything if
it doesn't shine. The last upgrade process to ubuntu 24.04 was a major
improvement. With the older upgrades, it always broke something. And if
you stopped upgrading it in the middle, your only choice was to install
ubuntu again. And now, it's the first time I saw people stopped in the
middle because they didn't understood the questions or it took too long
which it was easy to fix. Just start again the install and everything
runs fine. Which was unthinkable with previous upgrades. It's a major
improvement unknown to the end user which still benefits him. So saying
it doesn't happened because one didn't understood it is just showing
evidence of strong opinion based on lack of knowledge.
