a mac from 2019 (unless it's old and you did not get it from new) can be upgraded to a much newer macos version than catalina


these are the macOS versions after


11 – Big Sur (November 12, 2020)

12 – Monterey (October 25, 2021)

13 – Ventura (October 24, 2022)

14 – Sonoma (September 26, 2023)

15 – Sequoia (September 16, 2024)

26 – Tahoe (2025)


depending on your mac type you can go much higher


use google to type in the macOS version Sequoia requirements - Google-

and see which versions still support your mac

and install that on your mac
