I am running

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
Release:    20.04
Codename:   focal

According to https://endoflife.software/operating-systems/linux/ubuntu, this is supported until April 2025. However I have a naggingg notification that is counting down the days to, it seems, 2023-04-20. It states:

GUI Notification

Other relevant info could be that I'm running KDE, here is the version info:

Package: kded5
Version: 5.68.0-0ubuntu1
Priority: optional
Section: universe/libs
Source: kded
Origin: Ubuntu
Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com>
Original-Maintainer: Debian/Kubuntu Qt/KDE Maintainers <debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org>
Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug

Any idea what might be causing this message to appear apparently two years early? Is there a danger that this might cause my laptop (that I use for all my work) to stop receiving updates?

See the Kubuntu 20.04 Release Notes:

Support lifespan

Kubuntu 20.04 LTS will be supported for 3 years until April 2023.

Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Server have 5-year support for LTS releases.
The many other excellent flavors (including Kubuntu) have 3-year support for LTS releases.
