Conclusion

If you want the Long Term Support (LTS) version for .NET, then you should stick with .NET 6.0.15. However, if LTS is not your concern, then you may want to switch to .NET 7.0.4, which is a later release with improvements, or even .NET 8 Preview.

That being said, .NET 6 is the safer choice for users who want more stability and do not want or need to upgrade their versions too quickly.
