Windows users are just used to things not working so they become desensitised. Every windows laptop has had suspend broken for the last few years and windows users just think it’s normal that your laptop heats up and drains to 0% overnight.

I believe its formal name is “modern standby (s0)”. Microsoft mandated it recently and most laptops have removed s3 sleep which used to work properly.

Some of these may not be bugs. For example, I actually prefer this: > Mail now loses the mailbox selection when you start a search, instead changing the selection to All Mailboxes, which is rarely the scope that I want. This one isn’t new to Ventura. This happened all the time to me as far back as Big Sur: > External drives still take minutes to mount or sometimes never mount automatically. Sometimes I can manually m…

Some of the listed points in the article have been bugs for YEARS. They have survived major release cycles and a lot of them have Radars. Nobody wants to fix any of the thousands of bugs in MacOSX. Apple is just falling forward with every release.

If you want a clickbait video that describes the situation well: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OHKKcd3sx2c

Another item that I've seen gone from Ventura is the toggle to enable a low-power mode in the battery settings. Now, either you have always enabled when on battery, or not.

I used to take off of work to watch WWDC live. Now I just read the MacRumors post when I'm in the bathroom.

A decade ago it was a good watch because every single time they had something brand new. Of course it’s difficult to follow that trend but for a long time now it’s just been iterative updates. Maybe it’s just because I’m getting older and my views on consumerism have strengthened, but I used to get excited to preorder their new products, now I couldn’t care less.

i think it’s that the products are now mature.

I ignore macOS updates as a self preservation technique until something forces my hand such as buying a new computer or Xcode complaining it only runs on a particular release. Between macOS, cpu architecture changes, and the fast pace of Electron’s release cycle (node ABI vs native modules), I’m constantly terrified about keeping builds running. Each upgrade … I’m just clenching my chest waiting for the other shoe to…

Yep. I just updated my desktop from 10.14 to 10.15 only because I had to. Best to stay a couple of years behind. Not like the Apple of 15 years ago where their stuff just worked.

I started using OS X with Snow Leopard (before it reaches 10.6.8), but already then my colleagues were telling me not to rush on the first release of whatever next major versions, and wait for the .1 update instead.

I've recently bought my macbook air m2 (and also my first apple device), so far I've encountered some issues listed below:

- WiFi driver crashed after I've turned off the wifi, causing kernel to panic, rebooting my device. That happened twice already.

- Plugging TV via HDMI via a USB-C hub, switching to HDMI sound output, causes all media to jump to +8-300 hours (even if given media length is smaller than that...), strangely enough changing audio output back to macbook's fixes the problem.

- Activity monitor (macos task manager) takes FOREVER to load, if top/htop can load in mere miliseconds, why not the native app?

- Sometimes app bar won't hide in fullscreen mode (don't really know if that's intended), hovering mouse over it will fix that.

While I love the overall build quality, battery life and hardware, the software has some measurable "jank" in it, to the point I'm seriously considering not to buy apple stuff again. I've considered those devices to work out-of-the-box and after sitting on barely working linux as my daily driver I've decided to go for it and buy one. Now I've lost all hope for "just works" system, they do not exist.
