I am on a MacBook Air M2 (24GB RAM + 2TB SSD) with macOS Sequoia 15.7.2.
I am wondering if I should take the risk in upgrading to macOS Tahoe 26.1 ?
I work on web development projects having 2-4 browsers open at the same time with multiple tabs open (~25 in Chrome and in Edge).
PhpStorm, PyCharm, WebStorm, VSCode, SublimeText, Cursor are all open and not closed for weeks.
Terminal is open constantly with 10 tabs and use Termius for remote connections.
I occasionally use Affinity Photo 2 for image conversion if imagemagick doesn't suffice.
Other open all the time are Finder, WhatsApp Desktop, Discord, Slack App, Cleanshot X, GitHub Desktop.
Apache, MySQL, Postgres and some other small services possibly which were installed with brew.
Herd (app for Laravel) are running in the background too.
