2019 iMac - still very reluctant to install Catalina - regardless of any version. Mojave has been solid.
I had to revert to Mojave because of this one. It’s incredibly disruptive and persistent.Hope it fixes the iCloud verification finally. Real tired of entering iCloud and Mac passwords AND the code on my iPhone for some reason every other day.
Use Automator to set up the Terminal commands to kill the processes you do not want, and save the script as an app. Then use your account Settings to run that app each time you reboot. Been doing this for a long time - slightly annoying as you likely will be prompted for your admin pwd, but unless you reboot a lot, it is a very livable situation.
Exactly. It is ticking me off for not having my egpu for over a month now.has it fixed the macmini Egpu issues?
Well, to quote Windows as a model to be followed is quite ridiculous imho...It would be insanely great if Apple devotes some effort to maximize performance and minimize memory consumption. We should not have to rely on Macfanscontrol and Lingon to control fan speed and disable unncessary daemons, it should be builtin, as in Windows.
AMD drivers are a mess even on Windows 10, unfortunately...Kinda positive experience with Catalina (.2), it's been suprisingly stable so far (I'm on Catalina due to MBP 16") but the external monitor issue (most likely GPU drivers issue) is bothering me so I'm in hope for some improvements to be delivered with .3 when it drops in stable channel.

Pretty sure it’s always been posted that way. That’s how I’ve seen it.
I know this isn't the best place to ask, but what are people's opinion on the Music app? I am still on Mojave and for all its problems, I am reluctant to give up on iTunes.
Stay with Mojave. I went to Catalina and that was a very big mistake. I much preferred iTunes to Music.I know this isn't the best place to ask, but what are people's opinion on the Music app? I am still on Mojave and for all its problems, I am reluctant to give up on iTunes.
STAY THERE!I'm still in Mojave
I am not the only one!?
I thought I was going crazy with this. Hoping for a fix after a full year.
Is the Stocks.app icon in the dock? If so, right click on it and choose Options>Open at Login (if there is a checkmark next to it)I try that its still same stocks App Launches when I reboot MacBook startup stocks App Launches
What "stuff"?Totally. Lots of stuff running that I never use. Have to jump through hoops to disable.
A simple startup manager so I can boot “macOS Light”. Would be welcome.
Check out Lingon from Peter Borg -- https://www.peterborgapps.com/lingon/Yeah, those are the hoops I don't want to jump.
Also, unless you remove it from launchd, it will be coming back.
Good news with this update:

PSA: Apple Mail Bugs Can Lead to Data Loss in macOS Catalina
There’s suggestion (in comments on the blog that’s referenced in the article) that the 10.15.3 beta includes bug-fixes tied to this issue…forums.macrumors.com

I had to set display refresh rate at 60Hz (on a 144Hz monitor !) otherwise vram will stay at maximum freq all the time.
Against proclamations to the contrary, it is clear (to me) that Apple is letting macOS die an ignominious death.
There is no need for Apple marketing denials. because the proof lies with the core macOS, and unique, Cloud-based applications (Mail, Message, Notes, Reminders, ...) which are being lobotomized by poorly-designed and, worse, ill-tested Catalina. Even worse, remain bug-ridden after two months underscoring the absence of urgency.
The small number of user posts on this critical subject (even the absence of "how-do-you-dare!" comments from the Apple Defense Force) speak loudly to the sooner-rather-than-later demise of macOS (and the Mac). Whereas any insignificant note on iPhone and iOS spawns 10's of pages, the horrid state of macOS Catalina barely collects three pages after one weekend.
Yeah. I am still running Mojave 10.14.6.
But those that say, "Mojave is working great for me" ("if you do not know about something, you do not worry about it"), please take a look at /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports and check the 10's of reports caused by WebKit and stalled shutdowns under "working-great" Mojave.
