Hello! I'm using spigot and always thought that the lates version of minecraft server is always better then the older ones. And now I discovered that plenty of servers are using 1.8.8 version with ViaVersion.
So, my question is: is it really okay to use 1.8.8 instead of, for example, 1.12.2? Or is it better? Or worse?
Minecraft 1.9 was the Combat Update, which proved to be really controversial in the community. Many servers have kicked back and stayed on 1.8 or even 1.7 to retain the old system. If you can at least accept the new system then I would update to the latest version as more people probably use it.

Depends on what type of server you want and how you want to do it
