I keep get invited to opt in to esm-apps because I have apps which have updates. But I have subscribed. Ubuntu 22.04

Each time I get this:

 [~/blog] [] $ sudo apt dist-upgrade

Does this answer your question? [What are the services 'apt-news' and 'esm-cache', and how do I disable them?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/1452519/what-are-the-services-apt-news-and-esm-cache-and-how-do-i-disable-them)

I think this messages pops up no matter what. See the above answer to disable this.

I think you may be right. The apps in questions have actually been updated to the esm version

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
