Plenty of systems still use .NET 8/9 today. It's very likely that there are some websites that we use daily running on .NET 8 with ASP. Microsoft never barged in our server room and forced us to upgrade .NET, but YMMV.

I think a lot of this stems from the fact that we live in a "why we can't have nice things" world. As long as there are bad actors, there will need to be security updates. So if you don't update, and Microsoft no longer provides security updates for that version, you're in quite the bind.
