So... I also have a 2017 iMac - mine is a 27" 5K version; great monitor. There ARE ways to run the newest MacOS, if yer interested. In fact I have a YT video about it and have been using the newest version for the last 2 months and the only issue I saw was the first several reboots were a tad slow, but its been running really nicely for about 3 months now. All the new Sonoma OS features w0rk just great:

The software used is:

I don't wanna vouch for it being *perfect*, as I don't know your exact hardware and setup - but for me it was worth it... there is detailed compatibility charts on the OpenCore website - and it looks like the 2017 will be supported for awhile - you can install Sonoma, in varying degrees of functionality, on macs down to 2013 models.
