This questions arises because of a recent release of a new Mac operating system (OS), though it’s a continually relevant question.
In general there are two strategies in this regard:
1. Some people immediately update to the new OS and potentially suffer when some of their applications don’t work on the new OS. In this most recent Mac OS release, many audio applications would not work at all.
2. Some people (me included) don’t upgrade operating systems immediately when they become available because they want to allow time for all the kinks in the new OS to be worked out, and allow time for application developers everywhere to make sure their apps are compatible with the new operating system.
How do you handle OS updates?

Personally, I’ll upgrade my laptop, try out my apps and then if no issues upgrade my desktop.
Delaying upgrades can make you more susceptible to security weaknesses which some upgrades stop.
