There is a FOMO especially around younger developers who wants to use latest, newest and upgrade all frameworks the moment they pop out on Microsoft website.
Older developers (like me) have opposite problem and I have been fighting for months to not upgrade .NET4.8 to .NET8 due to compatibility with our current deployment chains etc. In the end I had to admit that using .NET8 for everything is going to work too and is going to give us access to better tools and new tech either through some teething problems.
It could be because this is the easier way to build up resume and be competitive on the market.
