What is the most STABLE OS for MacPro 5,1

I've been using OpenCore for years on my MacPro 5,1 with a Kingston SSD and an RX580 (8GB RAM). Recently, I upgraded to macOS Sonoma using OCLP 2.0.2, but it’s been a nightmare. The live wallpaper in Sonoma was so corrupted that it crashed my entire desktop environment. I even tried upgrading to Sequoia, but that didn’t help, so I did a full factory reset. Unfortunately, every OS I’ve tried has been buggy. I need Monterey or later for work-related software, but here are the issues I’ve faced so far:

  • Monterey: Major Wi-Fi issues, couldn’t get it to work at all (seems to be a common problem). Strangely, Wi-Fi works perfectly fine on Mojave.
  • Ventura: Bluetooth was unstable and unusable. Again, no issues with Bluetooth on Mojave.
  • Sonoma: Desktop issues caused by live wallpaper corruption, wouldn’t wake from sleep, and overall poor performance.
  • Sequoia: Similar problems to Sonoma, plus Wi-Fi issues.

Any suggestions?

Side note: during my fresh install I needed to use both High Sierra and Mojave. WOW I am feeling like the new OS have been a downgrade. The Older OS felt cleaner, simpler, and higher quality
