My vps was two Debian versions late and both upgrade went super smooth. Did it fromy damn phone even.
i imagine it's a bit of gamble sometimes, depends on how much software was deprecated changed or moved around, a lot can happen in a support period. Regardless spinning up a new install in an automated manner should be relatively trivial, and probably something anyone can accomplish for backup purposes.
