Do you update Coolify immediately or wait a few days?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently running Coolify v4.0.0-beta.472 and noticed a new update is available.

I wanted to ask the community how you usually handle updates. I take a safety-first approach since this server is important for my workloads.

Do you update right away, or wait a few days to see if any issues show up?

Also, what steps do you recommend before upgrading (backups, staging, etc.)?

And just to add, I’ve been really happy using Coolify. It has made things much easier for me, so thanks to the team for the great work.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I completely get what you're saying, I personally let it sit and update after a couple of days unless I see a major security update.

Honestly this is probably not a good practice but I don't do any extra backups before updating due to how Coolify itself is in a docker container that gets rewritten on updates and all the actual data is in persistent storages located at /data/coolify/...
