    It’s been a strict improvement on my computers, which isn’t to say that the author isn’t having problems, just that theirs (or mine!) isn’t the universal experience.

    And they’ve finally fixed some annoying, long-endured audio bugs: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;weblog.rogueamoeba.com&#x2F;2026&#x2F;09&#x2F;24&#x2F;macos-27-fixes-multiple-audio-bugs&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;weblog.rogueamoeba.com&#x2F;2026&#x2F;09&#x2F;24&#x2F;macos-27-fixes-mul...

      They surely fixed a lot of bugs, but not enough, and they added so many new stupid ones. Mission Control wasn&#x27;t perfect before, but at least it wasn&#x27;t buggy. Now there is a bug every two clicks.

      Even double-clicking in Finder is broken, many times double-clicks are just ignored.

          Well, I&#x27;ve been sitting on Sequoia this whole time, because I decided to sit Tahoe out, based on what I heard on HN. Maybe I&#x27;ll sit Golden Gate out too!

            Same here: 15.8. I&#x27;m still running Intel Macs. Homebrew is out, Macports are in. Xcode 26.3. Everything else works just fine with a bit of patching (e.g Vagrant).
