See 8552afc for the previous one of these. The Zulip Server 5 release went out over 3 years ago, so the 4.x releases are all long out of our announced 18-month compatibility window: https://blog.zulip.com/2022/03/29/zulip-5-0-released/ https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview/release-lifecycle.html#client-apps So we can cheerfully refuse to connect to 4.x releases; our "Server not supported" nag banner has been asking server admins on those versions to upgrade since 8552afc, which the changelog says went out in v27.216, dated 2023-10-10. The last 6.x release, 6.2, went out on 2023-05-19. That's also outside the 18-month window, so it's time to start showing the nag banner on 5.x and 6.x. The last 7.x release, 7.5, went out on 2023-11-16, which is a month and a bit shy of 18 months, so it's not yet time to show the banner for versions 7.x.

(The branch is misnamed; I realized after writing it that we can show the nag banner on 6.x too. 🙂)
