I am trying to download uget download manager on my Ubuntu 22.10, and on official website it says to add repository sudo add-apt-repository ppa:plushuang-tw/uget-stable but when I run this command it says

Err:6 https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/plushuang-tw/uget-stable/ubuntu kinetic Release
  404  Not Found [IP: 185.125.190.52 443]
Reading package lists... Done
E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/plushuang-tw/uget-stable/ubuntu kinetic Release' does
   not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Is there any way I can add this repository?

Same thing happens when I try to install it's browser extension with sudo add-apt-repository ppa:uget-team/ppa

If a PPA doesn't have packages for your release it is a very bad idea to "add" it. This action can break your system.

You can download and try to install deb files from an old PPA, but in most cases they won't install because of wrong dependencies.
