This is not related to NodeJS's package in any way.

The real issue is stated:

The repository basically_all_your_repos does not have a Release file.

Your ppa entries are corrupted. Delete all ppa entries which throw errors and then run apt-get update. I'm guessing the installation fails at the beginning, when (sudo) apt-get update is issued. You can check out how to remove ppas here.

Try to use NVM to install node js and it helps to checkout different node versions in the same machine for different project.

Check this answer. I clearly listed the commands on how to install node js with NVM on linux.

  1. Open the Software Updates application;
  2. In "Other Software" tab unmark all options;

  • Do you, by any chance, know the EXACT name of the "Software Updates" application? When I go into the configuration settings for "update", I always get into the full Windows update. When I go to "app" configuration I don't find any update related things (I'm working on Windows-10 and I have installed Ubuntu (Windows Linux subsystem) as an app). – Dominique Jun 07 '21 at 06:41
  • Im not familiar with your setup, but in my Ubuntu distro I find it by searching in the menu bar, just start typing "Software..." and the application will appear. – Aurelio Jimenez Jun 15 '21 at 07:13
