    And the Apple Music playing music on “My Station” dies after playing a song or two still exists. I fee like this bug has been there since Big Sur.

    Also, external display swapping bug still exists, iMessage on MacOS no longer recognizes that I am the family organizer when trying to approve ScreenTime requests…This release isn’t any worse than the last, but Apple really needs a “bug-fix” release. A bunch of “just works” features aren’t working.

        That was when they were on a two-year release cycle, too, so there were basically no major features released between 2007 and 2011. The current new release every year (with features) is probably too fast for reliability and stability, especially because they need to make the ecosystem work with other devices (iPhone, iPad, watch, TV, etc.), and try to combine cross-platform features or maintain some cross platform parity between MacOS and the others.

          If they want to do yearly releases, with new features for every device every year, they need to reduce the number of features. There’s no point to 20+ features in an update if half of the features from last year stopped working correctly.

    Just upgraded my M1 Air, loving the new animated wallpapers and lock screen.

    My only pet peeve is that the offline phase of the upgrade took a whole 20 minutes - something which no other OS requires - yes, even for Windows, the offline phase of an upgrade is usually in single digits.

    So this is something Apple definitely needs to improve upon.

        Yeah, I read a lot of angry posts about it (as well as controversial Stage Manager). Still, time to upgrade, I guess. Don’t want to lag behind too much.

          At least you don’t have to use Stage Manager if u don’t want to, unlike the reorganized System Settings
