So, should I have maybe called one more time? I strongly believe he could have had AK, KK, AA or JJ although I have no stats.

I'd be 4betting KQo or folding to the 3bet. KQ does not play well vs a 3bet because so often you'll be up against AQ or AK.

Turn fold looks fine really without reads, yes it may be passive but at these stakes regs are not 3 barrelling you with air.

I see, I almost never look at it like that, so what would be ok to call and not 4bet or fold? Things like TT or AJs ATs kind of stuff?

I'd be calling with 88-JJ and maybe QQ if I did not want it get it in pre flop. AKo and AQs here is fine to call, I would add AQo too if they 3bet a lot.

You have top pair and a decent kicker. I would have called or bet

Facing 3 bets when you open from UTG or MP usually requires that you're careful with how wide you defend as you're facing a stronger than average range. Here's what I defend from MP in position.

As played I think it's close between calling and folding the turn in terms of EV. I doubt he has much QT stuff, and diamond draws won't be a large part of his range. Against an unknown folding is ok, but with reads calling can be fine also.
