You can try to find out what kind of CPU (specifically its "architecture") you have. The article suggests some ways to find out. If you have "Skylake" or "Kaby Lake" architecture then this article applies to you in the sense that you are going to lose support early. Otherwise you're probably safe.

For probably 95 percent of FR users this won’t affect them. Just more scare tactics by Linux advocates.
