No, that's not true. If it were, every six-month release of Ubuntu
would be different than the previous. Meanwhile, there is little
difference between Ubuntu 14.04 and 24.04 except for the GUI and the
kernel.

 
Even Ubuntu 24.10 is only up to the 6.11.0 kernel; the last Fedora
update pulled down 6.13.4.

 
Alright, what will the latest kernel change in a person's daily life?

In my life? As far as I can tell absolutely nothing. It seems like Fedora
41 gets a new kernel every week or so. Most of the time I don't bother to
reboot so I skip a few minor numbers. It's on a box with a 4th gen Intel
processor with integrated video so it's not like there are life changing
improvements.
