May go with this option for now, as long as this new version isn’t super unstable seems to be working for now.

I have weekly automatic backups with digital ocean server, this is for new site not much content or users so far.

Would be good to go through the steps of restoring from backup haven’t done that before.

My understanding is this version 25 is temporary version for testing new features to be implemented in main production version, so with this being scheduled for retirement in January of next year there will be option for upgrading to the “LTS” version then.
