2.10.22 vs 2.99.4

[Users mailing list]

Good Morning
I’m a new user and haven’t downloaded either version.
Should I go straight into 2.99 or is it possible there are bugs that would be frustrating and just stick to 2.10?
Thanks,
Len Kurylo

Version 2.10.x is meant for production use, so it should be stable and
functional.

Peace...

People are reporting that 2.99.4 right now can't write JPG or PNG
images on Windows, so if you use Windows, it's not very usable. It's
for testing, not production use.
