Just to confirm that CentOS Linux 8 has received all the 8.5.2111 stuff and zero-day updates?

Barring any serious CVEs, this will remain static until 31 January 2022?

Updates will continue until December 31st if any are released by Red Hat for RHEL 8.5.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
