For that stack your mini is more than enough, I use the 2014 version, 8 ram 1tera hdd and it's quite good handling: iOs and Android simulator on parerell (Nativescript) + 2/3 Angular protects running at once. I cannot use YouTube...cause the ram is at 100%, byt it's perfect for the rest. Do I want more? Sure, but I cannot afford it. Hope it helps you !

My MacBook Pro SSD kinda get hot on 8GB Ram.

I want to be more mobile at times.

Is the 16in MacBook better with its 2 fans?

Didn't you have a mini? And yes, 2 fans should be better, but what's the problem with hot, If it doesn't underperform?
With mobile I guess you meant be able to move around with it, so I definitely would buy a laptop, I really appreciate the mini, cause I prefer having more than one monitor
