how do i upgrade directly from yosemite to ventura?

Hi Dexicab,

Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities!

We understand that you'd like to update your macOS, but you don't see an update available.

You can download the macOS Ventura update via the App Store as long as your Mac supports this version. You can learn how here: Update macOS on Mac - Apple Support

"If you need help

If you don't have enough storage space to install

If your Mac stops at an Apple logo or progress bar during installation

If an error occurs while downloading or installing

Download macOS installers from other Apple sources"

We hope this helps.

Take care!
