Upgrade HighSierra - is it worth?

[Giuanniello]

I run HighSierra on both the Air 11" (mid 2012) and a Mini (2014 with 16GB RAM and i7 CPU), it feels fine, dunno what am I missing from not upgrading, the Air is an all purpose for web browsing, on the fly photo editing and email, the Mini is the machine hosting my photo archive and back in time the discussion was about if latest OSx version would fully support Adobe and other photo editors, since then I never really got interested into all of this but just wondering what am I missing from staying where I am.

Grazie

Upgrades are always better. There are some issues I'm reading regarding the latest version of Catalina soo you can settle for Mojave for now.

If the new version does not give you any features you need or provide any new security features there is no need to upgrade as an upgrade is most likely to provide problems. why go through problems for features you are not going to use.

High Sierra has been stable on my end and I think you would be fine in staying with High Sierra. If you don't need the new features of the latest Adobe apps, that would be fine. Sometimes newer OS can give problems. There's this thread on Catalina update bricking a MacBook Pro.

WARNING macOS Catalina 10.15.4 Supplemental Update BRICKED my 13 inch Macbook 2018!

I attempted to install the update but about halfway through my computer shutdown and it bricked my 2018 13 inch MacBook. I waited two hours then attempted to power on my computer. However, there was no power, no fans coming on and off or anything when pressing and holding the power button. It...
