Ticket #44851, comment 2
initial v1 1 Isn't this already the case with older version of WordPress anyway? If you have a site on an older major release branch (e.g. 4.2.x) and have auto-updates switched on for minor, but not major, releases (which is the default in WordPress if I'm not mistaken), then you will continue to receive back-ported security and maintenance updates even if you don't upgrade to the next/latest major release. 1 ~~Isn't this already the case with older version of WordPress anyway?

If we wanted to commit to that, then we could add an option to hide major update notifications I suppose, but in effect the work here is already done as it stands right now. 5 ~~If that's all true, then all that needs to happen for someone to be on a 4.9 LTS release is to just not run the update to 5.0.
