Seriously? What about functionality, like being able to actually BROWSE my albums in Photos when I'm trying to upload to my website, or Substack or pretty much anywhere outside of native Apple apps, without have to drag photos onto the desktop?! They remove basic functionality and replace it with dumb crap like Memoji. Who gives AF.

And what's the point of customizing the colors if you can't customize the actual THEME itself? (image attached) Stupid.

Apple has really dumbed down their OS in the last several years. Monterey was the last decent OS as far as usable functionality goes. Everything since has been garbage.

I'm staying on macOS Sequoia for now on my production machine. There aren't enough enticing new features, and the Liquid Glass UI isn't great on macOS, IMHO.
 
This is a mess on macOS!! Widgets can get only dark when icons are also dark. But dark icons looks awful. On iOS 26 widgets are in dark mode when system is in dark mode and not depends on setting of icon color.
