Could you please give me some instance URLs so that I can check?

#14I like the Mac integration and all the features in the menu. Did I miss bigger fonts somewhere?

Swift Data is CoreData in a wrapper. Also, not OP, but I’m glad it’s written in AppKit vs SwiftUI purely; AppKit just feels better on the desktop. I can always “smell” a SwiftUI app just like I can an Electron app.
If the Settings app on current macOS is SwiftUI, then I can too. It's horrible.
Never thought of that. Is that why the Settings app is so slow? If I click on one of the menu items on the left, it takes half a second or more to load the screen.

SwiftUI doesn't help, but each panel is a separate process. The previous version of System Preferences hid the delay by showing an animation, the new one doesn't.

Why is a separate process necessary here?

You don’t want login settings, cursor blink rate settings and random app settings running in the same process

Nope. I will add this feature in future updates.
