im having the same problem now

Maybe the repositories were down? Does it resolved?
ping google.com should show if you have internet and the dns is working properly?
Wait. Can you show a picture of software sources app? What does it show?

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xia is obvious nonsense because there never has been nor will be a ubuntu code named after mint releases
you have messed up your software sources and should fix them before updating

You have entered incorrect information into your software sources GUI of via a command
You can use the software sources GUI to remove the erroneous source optionally replacing it with the correct one which you can look up online

Usually a non release file means some repo isnt compatible with the current exact version of the OS you use
share your inxi -Sr result
nvm see it
ur main base is a repo
there's no need for it to also be in Additional Repositories
some carryover from Wima (mint 22) perhaps, idk
remove it.

why are linux users such pricks
The weird thing is that you think this is being a prick when it tells you exactly what is wrong and suggests a fix. If you need more specifity you can just ask a follow up question
Notably the zero dollars you pay for open source means no paid support either just fellow users offering advice whilst living their normal lives
Notably Spotify isn't an official repository. The software sources GUI justs lists anything you add either by running a command editing the text configuration or in the GUI
Most likely you ran a command that you found on the Internet that added a repository and it automatically added the name of the release to the configuration
This would work in Ubuntu but in Mint you get an erroneous xia in that repository configuration
Instead it should say noble
The sources config needs to know what version of the packages to pull. It should pull the Noble aka Ubuntu 24.04 version because mint 22 mint is based on that
They don't have a special xia version because mint is just Ubuntu

I had to install Spotify-client from their repo because the one from the main repo was broken
So I should simply remove the Ubuntu repository in additional repositories?
