I am using some old LTS version and I am fine, I run Arch many years ago so I had my time of updating to latest and greatest but now I no longer need latest apps or libraries and only thinking that the next system update will bring me new bugs or changes I don't want to handle at this moment does not appeal to me anymore.

When I need something I will intentionally up[grade that program (for my IDE I keep old versions around to revert) and for my system I upgraded my video driver only when I had to, the rest is all LTS stiff.

Just making my a point that for some people the updates is no longer(or was never) an exiting thing and as long as your current machine just works there is no reason to break it.
