I saw there was discussion about backward compatibility between MongoDB Server 4.x and 5.x for a new driver upgrade. One consideration had to do with writeConcern defaults which are set to majority in MongoDB Server 5.x.
Given that MongoDB 4.4 is EOL February 2024 it seems to me that we can drop support for MongoDB Server < 5.0 in the next major release.
