The general recommendation is to use a recent version from an appropriate
branch, and in case of the stable branch - the recent security release 1.22.1,
please visit https://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-1.22 to get more details.

Usually, the NGINX OSS Development team creates new branch with a
continuously increasing even number in April-May every year:

1.22.x - May 24, 2022
1.20.x - Apr 20, 2021
1.18.x - Apr 21, 2020
1.16.x - Apr 23, 2019
1.14.x - Apr 17, 2018

So, based on that data, we may expect 1.24.x branch and first release in that
branch at the same time of the year 2023.

Hope that helps.
