The question is: Update software/firmware or not?

Cheers fellow pilots.
Raining cats and dogs here in Brazil. Probably the rainiest November in ages. Not much flying !!
I have read about many people running into problems after updating their software/firmware.
That makes me think... So far, I have not updated anything on my MM since I bought it in Jan 2020,
as all works fine, never had any problems or issues. So, if it ain't broke, why fix it?
By the way, this is where I live. As you can see, I have no problems with flying over houses or people.

I already posted this in another thread but the rules I use are: If it doesn't fix a problem that you are having, add a feature that you are missing, or fix a critical security issue, then there is no need to update.

It’s always a small gamble updating firmware on any device PC,s & phones included, 99.9% of the time some small thing is fixed but that .1% can mess things up.
I am in the update now league but I can see why some people are a little hesitant.

Nope.

I usually update when the outrage over the new update has subsided and people generally agree that it works.
