    Mainly because of the number of things I have that I rely on every day and definitely don’t want to break until I’m ready to upgrade it and have time to fix it if it does break.

    I know many do use :latest but having a service break while I’m away or travelling really sucks

        It’s not unusual for an update to have breaking changes that require some manual intervention to fix.

        If you are on latest, it can also be hard to know which version you used to be on if you want to roll back.

        For important things, I used specific version tags and then check the release notes before upgrading.

        Ok…so it should be easy to understand why for many people :latest is not a good idea
