Even if a build is newer, its stability can differ from previous builds. It will trend upward though, even if there are a few dips along the way.

isn't the letter build dependent and only shows how often a build was compiled before being released by the quality team?
 
Since beta 1, my Exchange account in Mail app start to moving messages every few days and I need to reconstruct all mail account to get it working again for few days and everything repeats 😞.
 
This was fast, literally reported this 4 hours ago.

Had the same issue. I've found that this beta seems to have fixed that.

Are the network issues fixable for those experiencing them? Are they only caused by certain VPN configurations or apps? Wondering if NordVPN is working fine.

Why does it say "Macintosh HD" twice in the finder window?
Click to expand...
It appears in the sidebar, appears in the toolbar (icons enabled in Accessibility), and it appears in the path at the bottom of the window.

The name of my external SSD, for some reason, stopped appearing in the sidebar.
 
Twice now, new Siri has been swell for me. I went to a doctor's webpage, and told Siri to create a contact for him. Et voila. Same for some text I highlighted on a webpage; I told it to put in a new reminder for today.

Anyone else noticed a ton of errors while using Disk Utility's First Aid? I get a lot of "Unexpected security xattr"? First Aid still completes, but repeat runs don't clear the errors.

Doesn't seem to be causing a problem, but I didn't start getting these until the OS 27 betas.

Interestingly, a new feature (for me) - when you run First Aid while booted into the volume, macOS now spotlights the Disk Utility window and greys out everything else. I assume this is to make it obvious you can't interact with the system if you running it on your boot volume.

This is what Adobe Derangement Syndrome boils down to. They never cared whether the apps were one off payment or subscription or whether the Adobe suite cost $2000 or even $20. They don’t talk like that about all the other creative app companies with subscriptions. They are singularly deranged about one company and would pirate Creative suite and crack it even if it was $10.

Don’t say you wouldn’t. We know what pirates do and what they say. We have Reddit too.

I paid for Affinity because it was a one time payment and on sale

I hate the left justified titles

The main appeal of left justification ... perhaps not in the finder window, really ... but generally, like with a larger bloc of text, the main usefulness is faster reading. Coz the eye always tracks back to the same start position on the next line.

Whereas with right-justified or centered text, the start position of the next line is varied, leading to slower reading.

No such errors shows up on mine after running 'First Aid' which is something I do after every Update.
BTW I am testing Golden Gate on an external drive, apart from Siri AI not available on an external drive, I haven't experienced any other anomalies so far with Beta 3.

Oh 100%.

I just think in windows since there’s only one line of text it looks sooo much better when it’s centered. It was something I liked a lot about Mac vs. Windows
