With that said, to answer the follow-up question “ should I/can I learn Blender 2.9+ using tutorials for Blender 2.8+“, then generally speaking “yes”, because the two versions (currently) have little of functional difference between them. Whereas if the only interest is in using the latest features and effects to create content, use Blender 2.9+.īe aware however, that as a direct consequence of the change discussed above instructional materials and information may out of date, incorrect to varying degrees or be completely obsolete more rapidly than with previous versions, or it may be more difficult to determine what sources to use numerically (searching for material that matches the version number).
In other words if stability and support is necessary, to ensure projects don’t break when opened into newer versions resulting in lost time fixing issues that arise, then Blender 2.83 LTS should be used. The answer, “ use whichever version seems appropriate to the job at hand“. This change obviously begs the question “ which version of Blender should I use?“. bug, security and usability fixes, whereas Blender 2.9+, the Foundations active release (at time of writing), essentially continues to follow the normal release schedule ( subject to the name change) with the latest features, bells and whistles, being supported only so long as the version is ‘live’.
Why is explained in this developer post, but for all intents and purposes the two versions, Blender 2.9+ and Blender 2.83 LTS, are essentially the same with one main exception Blender 2.83 LTS is ‘feature locked’, it won’t be updated or changed with new tools, features or functionality but will instead receive extended support (two years) to cover core performance, i.e. With the recent release of Blender 2.9+ there are now two active versions of the application available for use the current Blender 2.9+ release and Blender 2.83 LTS (‘LTS’ = Long Term Support).
