Why/why not use .NET 7 for my company's new project?
Main Post:
I am a new-ish dev and I have been tasked with creating a React/C# app (NET & SQL backend).
I want to use .NET 7 but it is very new and not stable (idk what that means) and I don't know the pros, cons and risks of going with the latest and greatest tech, so please let me know. Also, what are the minimum .NET 7 deployment server hardware requirements?
(Note: I noticed there's a lot of shilling for all the new shiny NET technologies in this sub, but I am looking for balanced well thought out answers so I can get a good understanding and make the right decision)
EDIT: How much trouble would it be start on 6 and then upgrade to 7 once 7 is stable?

Local man stole over $600K of company funds, gets 7 years jail

Top Comment: A 40-year-old local man was sentenced to seven years behind bars by the Intermediate Court after being found guilty of embezzling over BND600,000 of his company’s funds, forgery and money laundering. Deputy Public Prosecutor Dayangku Didi-Nuraza binti Pengiran Haji Abdul Latiff revealed in court that the defendant was employed as an account executive in October 2012 and was promoted to lead the business support team in June 2014. One of his duties was to issue invoices for jobs performed by the company and ensure payments were made on time. He first forged a cheque and withdrawing BND72,000 from it, and embezzled the rest by issuing and cashing out cheques with an authorised signatory. He also remitted BND42,493.89 to his wife and father-in-law in the Philippines. Then, he abruptly resigned in December 2015. The defendant’s actions came to light when the company’s operations manager discovered unauthorised withdrawals between April 2014 and December 2015. He lodged a police report, leading to the defendant’s arrest. Investigations revealed that the defendant had misappropriated BND616,251.26 from the company’s funds. The defendant admitted to having spent all the money on personal expenses. On handing the sentence to Chan Kui Yu on October 17, Judge Harnita Zelda Skinner noted that the offences were purely committed out of selfishness and greed. The court also took into account the length he had gone to conceal his actions by fabricating receipts to support the issuance of cheques.

Top Comment: Nice 2023! Now let’s look at 2022: Apple: -26% Microsoft: -28% Google: -38% Amazon: -49% Nvidia: -50% Meta: -64% Tesla: -65% And the S&P500... -19% This is why people recommend index funds and diversified portfolios. Especially because those 7 all cover very few industries collectively.
