Access to new features is probably one of the reasons I always try to update everything on time. This applies to iOS, macOS in general, as well as software and apps in particular. If you’re a programmer or developer, I highly recommend updating Python in a timely manner https://setapp.com/how-to/how-to-update-python-on-mac. You could waste a lot of time solving a seemingly simple but new problem, only to realize that the solution is in a feature you’re missing because you don’t have the latest version of Python. Plus, updates generally boost system performance.

But you can miss out on many cool features that come with updates. Plus, many apps and software won’t be available in the App Store on an outdated Mac. I doubt you use your Mac 24/7, and a full system update takes less than an hour.

Do you even keep track of them? I don’t always update my Mac promptly. Every time, I turn on automatic updates to happen overnight, but then something goes wrong, and I end up canceling everything. Honestly, I’m always too lazy to deal with this.
