Is it known whether NET 5 will require new VS version (ie. 2021)? I'd love to upgrade to net core 3 but I don't want to upgrade everything again in a couple of months.

.NET Core 3.1 is a LTS version. It should be good for a while (3 years I guess).

If the dev env upgrade burden is a topic, go for the LTS versions.

.NET 5 will be a current release and .NET 6 will be a LTS if I remember right.

Yes, that looks correct to the roadmap. https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/roadmap.md#upcomi...

I'd guess that it would require a new version of VS. To use .NET core 3.x you have to have VS2019, that is unless you're using Rider.
