hello, friends!
I'm still learning how to use Linux so I wanna know more about
upgrading, since my 16.04 version is already receiving notifications
about 18.04.
Others have warned against 18.04 and some have said it works for them.
I moved off Xubuntu to Mint 18 running Enlightenment so I'm an edge case
and can't comment :-)
is there anything I should take care with? will I lose any files upon
upgrading?
No, upgrades don't touch user files so they should be fine (stuff in
/home/thiago or wherever your home directory is), but as Spass
suggested, it's always a good idea to back up regularly anyway.
If you have manually changed anything in the rest of the system (eg in
/usr or /etc), that will get overwritten, so you need to have copies if
you want to reapply the same changes afterwards.
