Will Aperture still run on High Sierra, or is Photos already a viable replacement?
Aperture might or might not run on HS (not sure), but holding to it until Photos catches up is not very good strategy, at some point it will just stop working (and it's not getting any new fixes, updates, etc).
Better move to Lightroom or something similar.

You have problems with iOS 11? Anyways, it's definitely stable, honestly I feel like it's the most stable .0 release I've been on (have been going beta -> GM on almost all releases).
I experience lagging on iOS 11 on both iPhone 7 and the 10.5 inch iPad Pro. There was no lagging on iOS 10. Basic things like swiping across home screens lags and feel jittery. Also when you unlock and the apps come into view it's annoying laggy.

Noone I know does this.
My understanding was that recent versions of Mac OS have an upgrade process that works a bit like this anyway — i.e., behind the scenes it's doing a fresh install, then copying your files back across. But I could be wrong.
Are you thinking of the reformatting to APFS? That's kind of done like this. Aside from this, the OS upgrade is the same as it always is: install the new system-level packages over the existing files & reboot.

Took some time to realise that "Available 9.25" meant 25th September. The box looked more like a disabled button.
Yes, American dates are confusing and illogical at the best of times, I wish America would standardise on the international ascending order date style of 25/09/2017.
Is it recommended to format the computer and start fresh after upgrading?

I have a script that installs all my settings, brew packages, etc, even App Store apps, from external backup disk -- I'm up and running in 2-3 hours after the base install.
If it's so lag-g-g-g-ing and non-responsive as iOS11. Then I better wait with the update :|

The biggest change I’m hoping for (but not expecting) is the ability to sort shared iCloud albums by time taken, not time added to the album. This isn't a criticism of you, but when a major OS update comes down to trivia like this, it seems a bit of a shame to me. I remember the 10.2-10.6 releases and just how significant they were and it feels like rearranging deck chairs in comparison nowadays.
> This isn't a criticism of you, but when a major OS update comes down to trivia like this, it seems a bit of a shame to me. There's a whole new FS that went into production in something like 4-5 years (unheard of) among lots of over things...

I hope we'd all standardize on the opposite: 2017-09-25.. it sorts properly when used in file and document names :-)

I do experience lagging even on basic stuff like writing SMS or other-text inputs... (waiting 2-3 seconds for the soft keyboard to response). I'l have to do some Option->Reset when I find time... [iPhone 6+] Not good when you can't trust the device... once my iphone freezed for X seconds, then I realized that random social post were posted to FB, while I tried to touch the display... :) And that scares me :) I have t…
I am excited about the new Photos, I am hoping I can stop having to use Lightroom and other tools aimed at real pro's to manage and edit my hobbyist photo collection.
