I wish it was readable at least.
Unbelievable they won't bring back compact tabs too.
The level of design they are putting out these days is absolutely soulless & decadent.
Got a tip for us?

i think this Beta runs smooth, maybe a little glitch here and there with Adobe but for the most part nothing wild
What? This is entirely Apple software team's creation, no need to involve Wall Street.
Ah, great. Fewer people to blame!
In all seriousness I likely won't be upgrading my Mac to this nonsense
It doesn’t seem ready for a public beta, but they’re gonna force it along their regular schedule no matter what
How did this pass into public beta in this state. I just can’t believe how bad this is
Its not bad overall, nothing seems broken (so far anyway). The curves on windows are in danger of turning me into a Victorian psychopath who will begin terrorising the streets of Whitechapel.
Main issue for me has been form elements in Safari which are a bit hard to see.

I’d expect Tahoe to be supported for that Mac through OpenCore Legacy Patcher at some point, but it’s unlikely to happen before the actual release.
A beta is a beta, and can be in any sort of state. If it's bad, report on it. That's what it's for.
@jeremz1ne I'm curious. What glitches are you seeing with Adobe apps (and which apps are you seeing them in)?
Liquid Glass is fine, it's used so sparingly across the OS that it's not that intrusive. But the whole OS just feels... ugly. When I heard Apple was adopting the glassy look from visionOS I was excited because I was hoping they'd be taking the gray, smoked glass look. I think the fundamental problem with this redesign is that they're trying to do everything white on white using only faint shadows and gradients to provide depth and differentiation.
My biggest issue is the sidebars. Since Yosemite sidebars have had a visual differentiation from the main window by using a soft, blurred translucency. Now they're a slab of Liquid Glass that floats above the window contents. For apps like Maps or Home it provides a neat effect because the contents slide under the sidebar, but for the majority of windows there's nothing underneath, it's just plain white with a tiny hint of color refraction from the desktop or window contents.

You have no clue how all listed companies are enslaved to Wall St because you are enslaved too.
Ah i wasn’t aware of that, the legacy Mac I’m using it on predates T2 by a few years - late 2013 MacBook Pro.
