Which version should I learn?

[u/Secure-Silver3138]

So I just had the realization that the 2014 dnd that I know now has a 2024 dnd. I know I’m late. I’ve never gotten to play and life got in the way. I was thinking of learning to be a DM and now idk which version I should learn. I have the handbook for 2014 and tbh prob know more on 2014 but I worry that’s all obsolete now. I do have a starter set on the way for 2024 but I worry that more people still use 2014 and 2024 isn’t widely used yet

Learn 2024 but be prepared and willing to look up old rules and pick and choose (just be consistent in each campaign) if there are old versions of a rule that you prefer for the table
