Exactly. You don’t want to be bleeding edge (churn, bugs) but in general you usually don’t want to be on the oldest supported version either (let alone unsupported).

Risk/reward depends on the usecase of course. For a startup I’d be on the .1 version of the newest major version (never .0) if there are new features I want. For enterprise, probably the oldest LTS I can get away with.
