MACBook pro mid 2014 XCode

Hello!

I have a MACBook pro retina 15 inch mid 2014 2.5 GHZ quad core i7 running BigSur 11.7.10. I mostly do programming on Eclipse / IntelliJ and XCode.

Which would be the best OS to upgrade to? For my requirements, I am mulling Sonoma over Sequoia for now. I have some questions:

1. Will I continue to receive auto OS updates after using OCLP?
2. Anyone has a list of pros and cons of Sonoma, Sequoia, Big Sur for my machine?

Thank you!
