### Should I choose one or another going forward at the risk of one of them getting deprecated?

Given its wide usage, there are no plans to deprecate Mambaforge. If at some
point we decide to deprecate Mambaforge, it will be appropriately announced and
communicated with sufficient time in advance.

That said, if you had to start using one today, we recommend to stick to
Miniforge.

As of June 2024, Mambaforge is deprecated and will be retired in January 2025.
We recommend users switch to Miniforge3 immediately. For more details, please
see the note above.
