Final thoughts

If you want the Long Term Support (LTS) version for .NET, then you should stick with .NET 6.0.25. However, if LTS is not your concern, then you may want to switch to .NET 7.0.14, which is a later release with improvements.

These .NET versions are a part of Microsoft’s monthly .NET updates, so you can expect more security patches than features and bug fixes.
