LTS version proposal

[normalnormie]

We need a stable LTS version that our community has thoroughly tested and approved. This should be the default recommendation instead of newer beta versions that often disappoint new users.

It's remarkable how Cursor Chat 0.45 + 3.7 can't be beat

I’ve been using 0.45.17 and it’s just so good. I don’t know why. Is it the prompts?
