Long-Term Support (LTS) Policy
Overview
Our LTS policy ensures continued support for previous versions while maintaining focus on the latest developments. Below are the specific support guidelines:

Additional Notes
- Critical Fix Updates: Critical fixes from Minecraft itself do not affect this policy. If a critical fix update is released, it will be considered as the same as the update it associates with(like 1.21 and 1.21.1 would be considered the same).
- Feature Backporting: New features will only be available on the latest version and will not be backported.
- Bug Fixes: Only bug fixes will be provided for LTS versions.
This policy ensures a balance between stability for existing users and continued progress on the latest version.
