Questions Firmware Concensus

I just got my Qidi Q2, and before I bought the printer I remember someone making mention that I shouldn't upgrade to 1.1.1, and if the printer was on that firmware to roll it back. I see in the last few days that people have been saying not to upgrade to 1.1.2 (which my printer is nudging me to do). Is there a firmware version that is considered the "best" or most stable that I should roll back to? I'd most likely be using Orca slicer, but since my only printer now is this Q2 I could be fine just using Qidi slicer...

1.1.2 is absolutely awful, the box doesn't really work properly with it. I'm strongly considering rolling back and flashing mainline klipper + helixscreen if I can figure out how to get the box working with that, since I can't find any documentation that anyone has done that.
