I've been an HA used for quite a while. I used to maintain my own venv and religiously update my yaml with each release to keep up with the deprecations and changes. A year or two ago I finally decided to learn about Docker by moving my HA install into a docker-compose setup (and migrate my zwave config to zwavejs), and since it felt easier to rollback in cases of breakage, I have subsequently been updating whenever I feel like it and "just see." Surprisingly, while I get a lot of warnings in the logs, I find that my fairly complex setup (zwave, zigbee, mqtt, tasmota, ESPHome, custom 433 RF over GPIO, custom NRF24L01 over GPIO, BLE, webhooks, iOS, and a custom Alexa integration via fauxmo) continues to work flawlessly. I realize that I'll eventually have to deal with the tech debt that I'm accumulating, but it's been really surprising how good hass has gotten at auto-migrating configs and dealing with neglectful users such as myself.
