The ISO for Linux Mint 22.3 is available from mirrors, but the distribution has not been officially released to the public. According to a recent advisory, the full release is expected in a day or two.
A post from the Linux community account itsfoss2 on January 13, 2026, cautions users against assuming Linux Mint 22.3 is ready for widespread use. While the installation ISO can be downloaded from official mirrors, it remains unofficial until the formal announcement.
"📣 FYI, Linux Mint 22.3 is NOT officially released yet! Yes, the ISO is available from the mirrors but it's not released to public yet. It should arrive in a day or two," the post states.
This heads-up aims to prevent confusion among users eager for the update, ensuring they wait for the stable public version. Linux Mint, a popular user-friendly distribution based on Ubuntu, typically follows a structured release process to maintain reliability.
