Most people get excited about new iPhones. I’m always more interested in Apple’s October Mac updates.

    I hope they spend the entire week detailing all the bugs in macOS they intend to fix. It feel like the stability and overall qualirt has gotten real bad over the years.

      They should slow down the major releases. No one is buying a Mac for new OS features. They are buying Macs for the processor, name brand, ease of use, compatibility, and/or they need it to develope software for Apple products.

      I don’t know of anyone talking about how the new widget system works with the desktop and the quick sidebar now. Or how they have new video backgrounds. Or how they made thr login screen icons smaller for no reason.

        I’ve stopped keeping up to date with major releases because I don’t really use any of the new features and it usually breaks my environment so I have to spend an hour getting things to work again.

          This happened to me a few times. It forced me to stop updating until the software I need required it.

      I see this sentiment repeated a lot, but what kinds of stability and quality issues are you experiencing? It seems similar to “back in the day everything was good but now it’s bad”.
