What OS can I upgrade to?

I have an iMac (mid 2010) running Yosemite but I can't seem to access Adobe fonts. I think Creative suite needs a highter OS? I'm worried to upgrade to the latest OS - which one am I compatible with? (And how do I go about getting it?) Thank you so much

iMac 21.5″, OS X 10.10

Mostly you just need a more modern Browser than Safari on High Sierra like Firefox or Brave.
