Certbot Repo is no longer available

Getting this when apt update performed

Reading package lists... Done
E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/certbot/certbot/ubuntu focal 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.

I believe certbot report is not needed instead you can add python3-certbot-nginx which doesn't need any repo.

I have used sudo apt-add-repository -r ppa:certbot/certbot -y && sudo apt-get update -y instead of sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot -y && sudo apt-get update -y and it worked (on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS). Credits to this reply.
