How Drupal 8 aims to be future-proof - If you still use v7 you need to migrate as v8 is readying for migration to v9

I see many sites still running v7 and I know v7 still has a massive amount of 3rd party module support. But v8 has been out a long time now and many of the extra modules v7 required were included in v8 core. I was lucky to do my website from scratch on v8 so never had to migrate a v7 site.

But key is this comment about v8.9 release: "This version is going to be the last minor version of Drupal 8 where you will find new features or deprecations. The next version, Drupal 8.9, will not include any new additions but will be very similar to Drupal 9.0".

Thomas Edison famously said, "The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense." This quote made me wonder if "sticking-to-it" is contradictory to innovation; does it make you resistant to change? But, the more I pondered on it, I realized that innovation is fueled by perseverance.
