You can type "softwareupdate -l" to see what is available four your version of MacOS.

That's an "L" lowercase.

I use Firefox mainly. It gets upgraded no matter the OS version until the OS is so old that Firefox just won't run on it. It also has more extensions available.

Some things just work poorly with older browsers.
