Please tell me it is more stable than Catalina. I have to reboot my machine every day or two just to keep it going.

Full recompile for ARM. Interesting.

It shows up for me in the App Store but Software Update doesn’t find it for some reason.

Is there an iPad app that you are looking forward to use on the new M1 processors with Big Sur?

Any updates to the firmware or drivers for bluetooth? My 2017 Mac has had many issues with bluetooth consistency. Keep on hoping they will announce performance improvements.

The best thing about this is being able to run natively iOS apps (with new chips). I'll probably never open another Electron app on desktop again.

Wonder how the file management works.

I've noticed this in the last month/two - on my 2018 MBP as well - my Logitech MX keys/mouse will both randomly disconnect for 5 seconds and then pair back, this wasn't happening before.
