Oh right the Music.app, such a nice experience.
When reopened at boot, it gets stuck and you have to manually quit it and reopen.
If you pause a song for 10 minutes or more, clicking the play button does nothing.
It doesn't remember the songs order in the songs view.
The Apple Music section UI doesn't respect the foreground/background selection color.
The Apple Music section UI is often buggy, and some rows can't be clicked.
Items in the Song menu are disabled when in the Apple Music section, the same exact items are enabled in the contextual menu.
There is a whole thread about its bugs: https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...es-bugs-issues-troubleshooting-tahoe.2458544/

Liquid Glass as it is implemented on macOS just took the same step as iOS and iPadOS earlier, taking cues from the hardware to round the screen corners, then the content views. Earlier, macOS windows did not inherit this cascade. This is 'consistency' vertically ( hardware -> software ) and horizontally ( between platforms). I just think that's half-assed and does not derive from the spesifics of each platform.
Finder is just so ugly now. I can’t look at it. Wtf is the floating bubbles and rounded corners
Yes. There is no logical way to "converge" the laptop/desktop with the phone. It makes about as much sense as converging the floor with the ceiling.
Jobs said "taste" was important in design.
Jobs' father once built a fence where the back side of the fence was as well-crafted as the front side.
Jobs studied calligraphy in college. Thus highlighting the importance of the humanities in his life.
All these things tie into design.
UI design is extremely closely related to 2D graphic design, like in print design.

the only good thing about Tahoe is we can revert to MONTEREY!
just the lies fake promises all summer is the annoying thing about being Tahoe'd
seems to be I should ignore anything Tahoe here since I don't Tahoe anymore.
I used the word Tahoe for bad things lately in public......
"wow that person really "Tahoe d" that car stopped at a red light"
"make sure you don't Tahoe that roof replacement project"
"the current airport situation is so "Tahoe" this year!
"what, you purchased a Tahoe?"
we get the drift. enjoy being Tahoe everyone!

not on my Macs m1 for some strange reason.
I agree that Sequoia is a very stable OS but for M2 and up.
also Seq. does not like non programs and speakers.
heck even Monterey 2024 is not up to par so I'm using and older version 2023 Monterey.
if the Macs could not accept Monterey, I would have chosen Sequoia just for "open in new tab" feature.
My home Macbook is on Sonoma, and my work Macbook is on Sequoia. The only major differences I can see are -
1. More AI features in Sequoia, which I don't use
2. On Sequoia, when you click "x" on the nagging upgrade notification, instead of closing it opens the settings app. So basically, the system says "I'm sorry, you have selected the incorrect option. We have selected the correct option for you."
The forced AI and over-opinionated nature of these two things are very reminiscent of Microsoft.
I'm mostly talking about stability. I don't really personally use Apple Intelligence at all, and Siri still sucks.
I believe this is them getting ready for the OLED push on all their remaining, and big, displays. They can point and say “look how blingy this looks!” when scrolling/moving things around, and colors are dazzling and refracted everywhere. It likely sells some extra units.
Personally I think the refractions look amazing. But there is some mind boggling UI design choices all over the place, some elements that look like Fisher Price designs, and a way too strong reliance on transparency where there should be none. But At least for my experience, the 26.1 UI does actually feel surprisingly more snappy compared to Seqouia, on my M4 Pro, and that was a great surprise. I loathe the floating round UI elements in windows everywhere, but still not as much as I hate the great-System-Preferences-scrolling-list overhaul on MacOS from yonder.
