nether494 the following extensions are holding you back:

 fof/links 0.3.0 requires flarum/core (>=0.1.0-beta.12 <0.1.0-beta.14)
fof/sitemap 0.5.3 requires flarum/core (>=0.1.0-beta.13 <0.1.0-beta.14)
fof/stopforumspam 0.2.2 requires flarum/core (>=0.1.0-beta.12 <0.1.0-beta.14)
fof/upload 0.10.1 requires flarum/core (>=0.1.0-beta.12 <0.1.0-beta.14)

I have not checked whether all of them have beta 15 compatibility. If they do, you could try replacing their version constraints in composer.json with *. The Extiverse helper can help you do that if needed https://discuss.flarum.org/d/25246-extiverse-helper

      nether494 if possible, try updating Composer, ideally to version 2.

      There might be an alternate command for older Composer versions, maybe someone will be able to post it.

      nether494 composer update --no-install --with-all-dependencie

      composer update --no-install --with-all-dependencies
