Has anybody with a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) updated to Catalina with success

I've always waited to update to make sure kinks had been worked out. This Catalina update, however, has consistently poor reviews with 1 star far outweighing 5 star reviews. Huge red flag. My machine is lightly used and is primarily a browser computer. Very under utilized, no large files and most of what I do is in the googlesphear and backed up there. With this in mind, what is recommended?
