The biggest issue with Pipewire IMHO is that it does

what's involved in doing a backport, but I for one would use Pipewire
if it was working on 18.04.
I've just seen a response from SOURAV DAS posted on 11 May to:

Saying "Hi, the PPA maintainer here. Now added supports for Ubuntu
18.04 also."
Linux Mint 20.1 (Ubuntu 20.04) here, so haven't tested it.
