The biggest question I had when I was watching, Why did they not take the chance to rename is as macOS 11? OSX has been through two transition. The NeXT team must be very proud of their foundation they built 2x years ago.

I hate that they’re moving to a design where buttons don’t have borders and textures, don’t provide any visual guidances on what’s a button and what’s not. But I absolutely despise them for making iOS apps installable on macOS. That’s... just terrible. This WWDC just felt like that Apple decided that macOS should get merged with iOS and converged them. The Mac doesn’t have a future...
>> But I absolutely despise them for making iOS apps installable on macOS. That’s... just terrible. Don't use them then? Seems like a useful feature to me for certain utility apps that don't require a proper Mac app/can't afford to develop one.
It's strength and beauty was in the apps tailored entirely to the platform, not cheap tacky ports because the developer couldn't be bothered.
I still remember the Snow Leopard 'No New Features' launch. Mac OS has been as buggy as ever lately, I'd welcome another 'no new features' release with open arms.

Apple did bump the version to 11. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2020/06/apple-announces-maco...

I'm wondering if this is the release where OpenGL goes from deprecated to fully removed. Presumably Apple didn't want to write OpenGL drivers (full, not ES) for their in-house GPUs.
Oh god that new Mail app looks disgusting. Reminds me of a shitty Electron app, that kind of design.
