Hey guys, what's the recommended approach to OS updates please?

I have Raspberry Pis, would you recommend updating the OS on a monthly basis?

Are there any thoughts on firmware upgrades for Raspberry Pis?  

Thanks

Colin

Usually I keep an eye on here for any chat about system updates to see if it´s safe & useful, and (usually  Big Grin) have an SD  copy of a working image before running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
