And the Upgrade button is grayed out:
Any advice on how to “Upgrade”?

Perform a command line upgrade.
But you are so very behind I would make sure you have a backup first and you might even consider deploying to a new server completely and use one of your backups to restore.
Once backed up you could try:
./launcher cleanup app then
./launcher rebuild app
But you might find your OS is too old and your docker version is too old. But give it a try.

Old when last updates are an hour and a week ago?
Edit: my view is different, BTW. But that update time doesn’t tell when all of those are updated last time to a forum, but when that list is kind of updated? If so, then OP should upgrade asap via console.
Thanks. Will give that a try when I circle back.
Yeah, not sure what the “an hour ago” is about. It’s been a long time!
That’s when the repos were last updated. Not the site.

Yeah, I realize that when I checked out mine. Everyday something new (well, I don’t use UI updating practically ever, though)

And see also PostgreSQL 15 update.
Was it 4 years ago that you last upgraded?
Your OS is likely out of date too, so I’d probably recommend that you get a new VM and Move a Discourse site to another VPS with rsync, perhaps excluding postgres_* , and then restoring a backup, that way you avoid the database upgrade and instead just restore your data and it’ll get migrated when you restore it.
It’s simpler, and if anything goes wrong, your existing site can keep limping along.
