GitHub Actions still using ubuntu-20.04

Correct. If vmImage isn’t used, then you’re not using a Microsoft-hosted agent.

So does this need updating:

.azure-pipelines/azure-pipelines.yml

            branches:
              include:
                - main
          
          pr:
            branches:
              include:
                - main
          
          pool:
            vmImage: 'ubuntu-24.04'
          
          variables:
            python_version: '3.12'
            force_color: 'yes'
          
          stages:
            - stage: Local
              dependsOn: []
              jobs:
                - job: Test

Eventually yes, I guess, but right now ubuntu-24.04 is the latest version anyway.

There’s nothing wrong with using the Microsoft-hosted agents when appropriate. The issue is using soon-to-be-removed VM images.

All of the ansible-core managed projects already have a regular update schedule where we upgrade to the latest Ubuntu LTS image after it becomes available.
