Have I Installed Lubuntu 21.04 LTS, or need I do something to have LTS?

I've installed Lubuntu by following the instructions from chapter 1 of the Lubuntu manual.

In chapter 1.1, it said that I had to choose between LTS and Regular Releases. However, I was never asked to make a choice during installation. I used the image provided in the same chapter via rsync: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/hirsute/release/lubuntu-21.04-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync.

Did I do something wrong, or am I supposed to toggle on some setting to have LTS?

You don't make a choice during installation.

You choose by selecting the correct release to download.

If you download 20.04, that IS an LTS release.

If you download 21.04, that's NOT an LTS release.

LTS releases occur every two years in April: 10.04, 12.04, 14.04, 16.04, 18.04, 20.04, 22.04. See the pattern?

Both LTS releases and non-LTS releases are solid, stable releases of Ubuntu. You can run either and be quite happy.
