Wow, almost all Tahoe icons look like they are badly upscaled.
The GG icons are a big improvement from Tahoe.
But Safari still looks as ugly as it has been since iOS 7.
Got a tip for us?

Fun fact: the Darwin version number now matches the macOS version number (27) for the first time.

Not sure if anyone posted this, but there is a new menubar item for network with icon similar to this. Will post a screenshot soon.
indicating when the mac is connected and using Ethernet

Can confirm it's not possible. I guess it could get confusing as you'd potentially be manipulating widgets and overlapping app windows.

Ah gee... Well it's not ideal but an improvement, I suppose. 😀
Thanks for the screenshot.

What does it do if your system is connected to both ethernet and Wi-Fi? Does it just show both icons?

I think this is new. About 5 seconds after quitting Photoshop, I got a notification that Photoshop was "still running in the background" and noticed this new "running in background" behavior in the Dock.

No. That's what you see. I was connected to both at that time, but maybe it was reflecting service order (i have set it to ethernet first then wifi). I can't test it, because i played around and deleted it for now. I usually get into code and developer stuff by beta 3.
Anyone having SMB problems? Trying to mount an older Mac drive over network and it sees the volume but when trying to open, it says can't find it.

So far Golden Gate appears underwhelming. A few design choices are nice, but it feels quite lacking so far. It feels more like an update to Tahoe rather than a new release.

This is certainly new.
Would be nice if they could apply some Apple Intelligence to app quitting. Surely there must be some way for it to know some time after last opening a PDF I don't need the Preview app to just sit there until I quit it whereas yes I want to keep Mail running.
Quit just in general seems to be a crap shoot and a constant bugbear when I'm using macOS. Close a window in Calendar and it stays running. Close a Reminders window and it auto quits. Close Maps and it stays running. Close Weather and it auto quits. Nobody knows why.
Like a certain type of leopard, I can’t remember which. Can someone help remind me?
Is this how macos 27 looks with reduce motion enabled, or is this just how tinted glass looks now?
My Mac is too old and stuck on Sequoia, so I can’t test this one

Maybe someone already mentioned it, but when you do an activity with AW, there is that animated guy in the menu bar and you can see more details after clicking him 🙂

I couldn't be bothered to search the automation triggers, so asked Siri to create me an automation which asks me for a filename each time I take a screenshot and save it with that filename.
It works perfectly.
I amended it so that it only triggers when capturing to the clipboard (as otherwise I get two copies of the screenshot, as it still saves it under the original name) and created a default filename consisting of the current app name and the date.

This is with the new Liquid Glass opacity slider set all the way to opaque. You can also make it just about completely clear if you want. (I would say this slider the best new feature of Golden Gate, but it really should have just shipped with Tahoe from the beginning...)
Oh awesome! I really hope that makes it to iOS as well.
iOS 27 DB1 is definitely half-done compared to MacOS. Usually it’s the opposite.
