Unfortunately I think you're only reading what you want to hear. The Note 1 is no longer supported. It will not receive an official update anymore. The page you link to is referring to a custom rom based on android 4.4 kit kat. Check out this link. It says what samsung devices will be getting the update and when.
Here's the gist of it:
First Batch of Recipients
Samsung Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 are expected to get Android 4.4 KitKat firsthand and will directly benefit from various new system enhancements and improvements.
Second Batch of Recipients
After Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 received their updates, two former flagship devices will follow - the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2
Excluded Devices
Sadly, there are several popular devices too excluded from Android 4.4 KitKat update and it includes Galaxy S2, Galaxy S, Galaxy Note 1, Galaxy S2 Mini and Galaxy Minis. Due to the 18-month update window strictly followed by manufacturers, Galaxy S2, Galaxy S and Galaxy Note 1 are unable to receive any further updates but owners may resort to custom ROMs to get latest features. Galaxy Minis are unable to receive such upgrades due to hardware issues or incompatibility to the upcoming version of TouchWiz UI.
Sorry for the bad news.

Lollipop for Grand 2

Samsung has done an excellent job delivering the Android 5.0 Lollipop update to the Galaxy S5, turning a new page in the book of Software Updates. We already know that the Android 5.0 Lollipop update will be provided to all the galaxy flagship devices including the Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Alpha, Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy S4, but it seems that Samsung might be planning to show a little love to its mid range galaxy owners also. In a new report from our sources at Samsung, it has been indicated that Five Mid Range devices are also being considered for the Lollipop 5.0 update. The devices that were lucky enough to make it are – Galaxy Grand 2, Galaxy Note 3 Neo, Galaxy S5 Mini, Galaxy Mega 2 and Galaxy Grand Prime.

If Samsung releases Android 5.0, then I might be the king of the UK as well.
No, Sammy won't.
Dismiss the rumors. Does anybody remember the rumored Sammy Poland list showing the Grand 1 as a candidate for a 4.4.x update?
Forget it.
We needed it
Stop Spreading SPAM in all the post demoralizing people.

nice our prime will get lollipop
My sm-g7105 hasn't received the 4.4 update yet.
Do you think the touchwiz nature ux 2.5 would be upgraded to 3.0?
So guys, now there shouldn't be any hopes left of getting an official lollipop update.

great ... lollipop is an excellent version of Android ... we hope you will reaffirm this here ....
24.80 mb update fixed the bugs but no lollipop for grand 2
Guys 24.80 mb update was a clever update by samsung as they were planning for big os upgrade for this device but due to huge number of devices releasing every year, hence they were unable to provide the upgrade and just sorted the bugs with this minor update. You may say its the last grand 2 update. Here is the source website:https://www.justaboutphones.com/sams...ate-cancelled/

Galaxy mega 2

Is there anyway S7 Edge, Note 7 or 6.0 Roms for the Mega 2 and if not Who are some developers who may be interested in creating some? The Note 3 and the s4 are the most similar phones to the to the Mega. Id be willing to donate to someone who has a Fully working S7 Edge, Note 7 or 6.0 Roms for the Mega 2.

Will the Tab S6 get OneUI 5?

Will the Tab S6 get OneUI 5?
It is such a great tablet. OneUI 5 would make it supergreat.
Unlikely but I won't complain if we get more updates. What's new in 5?
It just feels very fast and fluid on my S22 plus. It is a noticeable difference with the change.
I am afraid not. The Galaxy S10 dosen't have the chance, so the Tab S6 is very likely to stay in OneUI 4.1.1 (Android 12L)
No, the Tab S6 will not get the Android 13 update. It has not been mentioned in any update list by Samsung

I am looking forward to LineageOS for Tab S6. I believe it will save many old devices.

no
Samsung at that time promised 3 years of software updates + 1 year of security updates. S6 started whit android 9 in 2019, so logic dictates no (sadly). Last update (T865XXU5DWC3) might be the last update in general.
