Those are really pretty! Clearly the S8 and the S21 are in different leagues. Wife and daughter have the S8. I gave my daughter the S9 which was the first model that truly had incredible photography.
Other than the amount of pixels in any given pictures, the only huge difference I see between yours and mine is in the panoramic picture. The amount of distortion of the buildings has improved radically since even your DSLR was made.
I'll try and take one soon for a comparison.
