I am just hoping for a faster boot time on stock ssds, High Sierra even with the latest version does not fix it still.
Got a tip for us?

I guess that means that 10.14 doesn’t focus on UI refining for consistency.
This isn’t a leak. Kinda lame that these guys are digging through Apple’s servers like this...
As much as I love nightshift, I think darkmode suits better for working at night, especially on xcode where developers are often working at night.
It's sad if dark mode is presented as a feature.
I'm the opposite, I find dark modes hard on my eyes. But I look forward to it being an option so that as many people as possible are suited.
Yes about everyone who isn’t a nerd and posting here. “Normal” users use launchpad usually
From that perspective, it would then indicate that Apple has failed to properly manage security on their own domain.
There are public facing pages, and private pages. A typical network admin knows how to keep corporate pages and unpublished pages private behind a secure login.

Yes, it is a leak. The video is (or likely was) publicly accessible through the Mac App Store’s public API (they were not “digging through Apple’s servers”), and Apple shouldn’t have uploaded the video to iTunes Connect (something that would require willful action, not an accident) early. Certainly no one forced them to.
Hopefully that means dark mode for iOS too.
I'm actually excited by this. Not because I want to use it myself — I personally prefer black-on-white text, and have had that preference for over 30 years — but because it might help sway more people to the platform. Some people, for whatever reason, just like white-on-black. And this serves them without hurting anyone else, so...I see it as a good thing.
Good timing for dark mode, since it'll be in a number of core Windows 10 apps this fall, too. (Already appearing to beta testers.)
They should replace the trash icon with an iconified version of the mac proCraig Federighi better mention that gorgeous black trash can!
This better mean dark mode on iOS too. Dark mode on macOS = ehh.
Dark mode and a port of the existing iOS News app are probably the biggest new consumer-facing features in MacOS Mojave, and both of them are now known ahead of time. This isn't even the first accidental leak of dark mode in Mojave, that was back in April from a beta build of Webkit. Unless they surprise us with some hardware (which is unlikely given the efforts to lower expectations), this year's WWDC isn't going to be very exciting...
If I had to guess most of what hasn't leaked, probably more ports of existing iOS features to the Mac years after they were introduced on iOS. Homekit, for example. The Mac is still Apple's most expensive product, and yet it is playing catchup to innovation happening on iPhones and iPads...

In time, maybe they’ll go all the way back to the early Mac days of monochrome white and black.
It wasn’t colorful, but it was clean, simple, and elegant in the early days.
Personally, for OS X, my favorite has always been the 10.0.x to 10.1.x visually.
But, I do recall the days when all we had was green and black. And then when white and black became common, how crisp and clear everything looked (granted the pixels were closer together, and letters were only one pixel thick). It was like butter vs sandpaper.
