I've had good luck with upgrading to new releases with various distros. 
Even my recent upgrade from Ubuntu 24.10 to 25.04 went smoothly. 

The one I did not try was openSUSE 13.2 to Leap. The consensus at the time 
was it really should be a fresh install so I ran 13.2 until last year and 
replaced it with Fedora.
