Is 4.5.0 a good upgrade from 4.4.5 now or wait?

I know that this will get a lot of opinions. ;)

Should I "wait" until the next update is out? Or Upgrade from my current v4.4.5 on Windows 11?

Is v4.5.0 an improvement over the older version?

I found 4.5.0 to crash silently. Not very often, but when it does, you don't even notice. If you want a stable release, this isn't one. And the new theme is ugly.

I have been trying it on my laptop. But not on my desktop yet.

Probably wait until the next update of the update.

I tend to wait for x.1 releases, just to be safe.
In this case I upgraded anyway without any issue :)

Will have to try it.

Or just wait until the next update on this update comes out.

I just downgraded from 4.5 to 4.4.5.
4.5 wasn't properly handling magnet files in the watched folder and I haven't had time to open a problem.
