It’s exactly 5 years since Apple released Mojave, with its many major changes. macOS 14 should bring fewer shocks to the system than 10.14 did.
For 34 years, Macs were known for rendering black text on a white background. Then came Dark mode, and five years later some apps still can’t cope with it.

If you’re still running macOS Mojave or earlier, now is the time to take action to ensure your Mac maintains protection against malware.
A brief summary of major new features in each version from El Capitan, some of their remaining problems, and future support.
If you believe that ‘the pioneers take the arrows, settlers take the land’, you need to reassess macOS now.
As Apple silently drops Mojave’s support, it releases a security update to iOS 12, which was originally released a week before Mojave. And its entire AirPort range also seems unsupported now.
