Welcome @Meb to the community!
Are you saying that you cannot run U-MATE on the Pi-5? If so, I wonder why that is.

entirely different hardware than the pi 4 you probably could make a pi 5 build now but it probably won't happen till after 24.04 and standard ubuntu 24.04 may well support the pi 5 which would mean a lot less work for the team than trying to hack together a 23.10 build that will only be supported for less than 9 months

I too am chomping at the bit for everything "Raspberry Pi 5" to hit the shelves... including Ubuntu Mate. As with every new hardware/technology release (not just RPi5) the software and peripheral communities are always trying to catch up to them.

I have been able to image an SSD to Ubuntu Server (using RPi Imager image) & install ubuntu-mate-desktop & ubuntu-mate-welcome with PI-Apps & get things running. Just don't install 6.5.0-1008, it will not USB boot on RPi 5.
Run "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade", but NOT "apt update && apt upgrade". Then you should be able to still USB boot.

Is this the Release 22.04.3 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) 64-bit for ARM server code base you are referring to? (we have been running it on our Pi 4's)
It's already July 12th 2024 and still no Raspberry Pi version of 24.04 Ubuntu Mate. I'm starting to wonder if they are waiting for the ".1" release of the 24.04 instead. What do you guys think?
