Which OS should I choose?

Hello everyone. I wanted to ask about which OS is better for my MacBook. I have a late 2009 unibody MacBook with SSD 256GB, 8gb RAM and Intel core 2 duo 2,8ghz. I want to use some apps that are not supported anymore on Catalina so I need to make the jump. I've installed Ventura but It's slow and laggy and I don't know If the problem is that I updated from High sierra to Catalina to Ventura or I don't know. I'm thinking about installing Big Sur or Monterrey. Can you help me to decide?.. and also.. Can I change some options on the opencore menú to make It smother? I'm new on this. Thank you
