📊POLL: When will you migrate to Spring Boot 4? DONE/ IN_PROGRESS/ ASAP/ DEPENDS

Spring Boot 4 migration isn’t just “bump the version” — it’s dependencies, plugins, baseline Java, CI pipelines, and sometimes a bit of archaeology 🏺😄

Here’s how I interpret each choice:

- Already migrated ✅ (prod) → you’re already running Boot 4 in production (respect 🫡).

- In progress 🔧 (PoC/stage) → PoC done / staging underway, ironing out compatibility + build changes.

- ASAP 🚀 (next sprint / Q1) → you’re ready to move fast as soon as the roadmap allows it.

- It depends 🤷 (legacy/libs) → you’re blocked by 3rd-party libs, old starters, company constraints, or “if it ain’t broke…” policies.

What’s your biggest blocker right now: dependency compatibility, time, risk, or business priority? Drop it in the comments 👇
