iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)

This faithful machine has given me ever since 2015 trouble free high performance. There is many blogs stating this model is obsolete and apple won't service it anymore. However, I have just updated my software to Big Sur 11.7.4.

Questions:

How long will it be until it is obsolete?
Can one upgrade the hardware inside this iMac?
Is it about time to upgrade the entire unit? (It is still running so very very fine)

Apple says it's obsolete already... Apple's 2013 and 2014 iMacs Now Obsolete, Apple Watch Series 2 Marked as Vintage - MacRumors
Very very difficult, so much that the answer is NO.
Mostly you just need a more modern Browser than Safari, like Firefox or Brave.
