Save yourself the trouble and stop reporting issues.
It's hopeless really.

I've never had a fruitful encounter with bug reporting to Apple.
Much different to all these other "less consumer-friendly" companies.

I'll start bothering again when they start bothering about reports from people like me and you.
Or anyone? I haven't heard much good from anyone. Hell, even Walt Mossberg doesn't seem to get attention these days.

Some issues are fixed quickly, I had WiFi issues from 10.11-10.11.1 and it was fixed in 10.11.2 after I provided diagnostic reports through the apple bug reporter.
But yes a lot of the time it seems they don't care about little things when it's Apple, they should.

So... Any noticeable performance improvements in this version in contrast to 10.11.3?
Depending on the machine really, maybe a little better on my 2015 MBPr

Let's see how this one pans out..over the last couple of betas only I couldn't help but report a few dozen very irritating hardcore long-standing bugs only to get responses from 'Engineering' that these are duplicates of others, still open ones...Funny thing is that MOST of the already open ones have IDs that pertain to OSX versions way before Yosemite... :confused:
totally agree on this, there's too many long standing issues through OSX and iOS these days...

Any examples? No reason to doubt what you say, but as you know all bugs have a priority. One man's "very irritating hardcore long-standing bugs" are meh to Apple and get a low priority.

More than happy to add weight and feedback your issues to Apple if they are as bad as you say.

Let me give you a most irritating one, not fixed since early betas of El Cap. Dock recent documents are no longer updating in El Cap, if you open (then close) in TextEdit, Number or some other app a document then right clicking on Dock gives list of recent documents without that one you just opened. Only way to "refresh" that is to kill Dock.

Moreover in some cases the Dock menu gets scrambled altogether, see my tweet:

This is a feature I am using since 10.4 when I started using Mac on daily basis, and they broke it in 10.11 and are unable for fix for over half year. FYI reported it around Oct last year, closed as duplicate of bug that stays open all the time. I just can't believe that Apple devs are so blind that they don't see this bug, or none of them know you can access recent documents via Dock.

Just some couple of links to Mac users reporting this issue:

This beta seems to resolve the long wake times and extreme non-performant system when multiple tabs in Safari were open, which I was having since beta 2 on my MBA.
 
App Store doesn't show I updated to the sixth version, though the version number is the 6th version it only shows the 5th version updated on March 2. Just a curious missing information
