I am limping along on Mojave on my 2013 Mac Pro. Many websites don't work well at all with Safari anymore, and sometimes the other browsers have trouble also. If I update the OS on my computer or buy a new Mac, I will lose the Adobe Suite.

I am imagining that the best way for me to have my cake and eat it too, is to transfer my internal drive with Photoshop onto a bootable external disk, and then upgrade the Pro to Monterey or Catalina or ? I don't need the Photoshop that often, so if it were just a matter or rebooting onto the external drive when I need that, then that would be a reasonable compromise.

A 1 tb external SSD is cheap now: what is the best way to copy my internal drive to that new external SSD? I have Carbon Copy Cloner, which might be the way to go.
 
Yes, you can use ccc to clone your mojave onto external ssd and boot from that to use the Adobe suite.
Have you tried Orion browser , or firefox dynasty on mojave? Safari is quite outdated, but these two work well.
