OS Update

Apparently automatic updates have not been loading on my macbook pro. Just found out it's still running Sierra OS. Any problems with updating to Big Sur at this time? Anything I should know in advance?

Many TIA.

Big Sur has a LOT of differences and leaves a lot of third-party software behind.


I recommend you not do all those upgrades at once. I suggest you install Catalina, then think about it before additional upgrades;
