Should You Upgrade Now?
Yes, if: You are starting a new project, your custom modules are minimal, or you want the latest features and longest support window.
Wait, if: You have complex custom modules that need Owl 3.x migration, critical OCA modules not yet ported to 19, or you are in a business-critical period where stability trumps new features.
