From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There's a PPA for neovim, currently at 0.7.x : https://launchpad.net/~neovim-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/stable Oh, sorry, I see NvChad wants 0.9.4 and Nerdfonts (Though not a hard requirement : https://docs.rockylinux.org/books/nvchad/nerd_fonts/).
https://launchpad.net/~neovim-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/unstable -> 0.10.x
That's by far not the latest version. The current prerelease is on v0.10
what is nerdfonts and dies linux mimt have it
According to that article mentioned in my earlier comment you won't need the nerdfonts.
whats a ppa and why does it take so long for apt to update its stuff
Ubuntu uses LTS with five year support, which is why they like to keep a lot of software versions back. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu I think. PPA is something you can add to Ubuntu or Ubuntu based Linux distributions to have newer or specific software repositories as extra on your system. Here's a guide on PPA : https://itsfoss.com/ppa-guide/
