Yes you do. Many (but not all) patches have to be updated every time a new firmware is released and you must only ever install the patches intended for the same firmware as is installed on your Kobo. All things being well, a new kobopatch pack will be released within a few days of each new firmware release.
thanks so much.

should I keep a list of the patches I am using so it is easier to update each V?

additionally, what is a use case for sideloading the firmware? cant the device do this already?

again, thank you for answering, and sorry for bombarding you with questions.
