Note: These links (below) were originally in the Parent's Post; but it was much easier to address each one when I moved them to the "Reply" section of my Post (this one) :
Hardware problems.
https://9to5mac.com/2018/11/28/imac-macbook-display-lawsuit/
Totally a "Deep Pockets" b.s. lawsuit. Almost NO laptops and All-In-Ones have filters. Filters are a double-edged sword, causing more problems than they solve when people neglect to clean them (which is everybody, all the time). Even over on Apple-Hating Slashdot.org, very few Apple-Haters piled-on to this ridiculous allegation. Next!

Those two are true; but you can find similar reports regarding Microsoft's hardware offerings...
https://www.engadget.com/2018/11/09/iphone-x-macbook-pro-13-ssd-apple/
Duplicate incident of the above. Nice try.

HOW is that a "Hardware Issue" Article?!? This doesn't EVEN belong in the list! Now you're just "link-padding"!
https://www.forbes.com/sites/ewansp...utterfly-keyboard-dust-problems/#466149a23021
Forbes?!? What do THEY know about "tech"? They just regurgitate whatever tech-blogs they watch. Next!
https://www.forbes.com/sites/ewansp...fly-keyboard-broken-free-repair/#4a4223a9cfea
Essentially yet ANOTHER me-too article about the same issue. Can't count it TWICE, now can we?!?
https://www.forbes.com/sites/ewansp...ro-2018-speakers-problem-broken/#618380f83c58
Again, Forbes?!? And you have that Article miscategorized. It was a minor software issue (immediately fixed) with Mojave, NOT Hardware. Pay better attention!
https://www.forbes.com/sites/ewansp...yboard-fault-broken-free-repair/#1483f87e7a44
Wow! Are you going to keep repeating the SAME issue over and over again, like they were SEPARATE PROBLEMS?!? If you keep this up, I'm not going to play anymore...
https://www.macworld.com/article/3311736/macs/macbook-pro-repair-software-lock.html
HOW is that a "Hardware Issue"? It was a corporate response to the ever-increasing problem of Apple getting "stuck" doing Warranty Repair AFTER someone wanted to save some bucks by using BOOTLEG PARTS. You're really reaching now!

AGAIN with the Keyboard issue?!? Jeezoid, guy!!!
SO, Total "Issues", not including DUPES: Three Mac issues, one iPhone issue:
1. A supplier-issue with the SSD modules (Toshiba makes them). Not Apple's fault. Can and has happened to other OEMs.
2. Contract Manufacturing or Component Supplier issue with the iPhone Display "touch" issue. Not Apple's fault. NO ONE QCs every single unit, sorry! Can and has happened to other OEMs.
3. Keyboard issues on MacBook Pro. This one has some merit; but Apple has made significant improvements. Would like to know if the new MBA keyboards suffer the same fate.
4. "Filter" Lawsuit. Just silly.
Software OS Problems.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasone...cbook-pros-performance-problems/#4cb3088d5905
This was also a corner-case scenario that simply wasn't caught in testing. It happens. Apple didn't try to obsfucate nor deflect. They promptly (and apparently effectively) fixed the issue:
"Fortunately Apple not only acknowledged the performance problems but also issued a fix. Here's the relevant portion of their statement: "[...] there is a missing digital key in the firmware that impacts the thermal management system and could drive clock speeds down under heavy thermal loads on the new MacBook Pro. A bug fix is included in today’s macOS
High Sierra 10.13.6 Supplemental Update and is recommended. We apologize to any customer who has experienced less than optimal performance on their new systems." [
via MacWorld]"
What more do you expect?

Not ONE of these appears to be a macOS BUG, sorry!
https://www.imore.com/how-fix-bluetooth-connectivity-problem-macos
Again, a simple .plist rebuild. A little annoying; but hardly a "bug"...
https://www.macworld.co.uk/news/mac-software/macos-mojave-3669087/
Pretty vague, except the thing about the Login. I admit I hadn't heard of that one before...
https://www.gottabemobile.com/macos-mojave-problems-how-to-fix-them/
Sorry, nothing new here. Next!
https://www.computerworld.com/artic...enterprise-docks-blanks-external-screens.html
DisplayLink is known industry-wide with having the world's BUGGIEST drivers (on ALL OSes!). NOT an Apple problem!
https://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/mac-software/apps-work-macos-mojave-3678735/
That's not a "Software Issue". That's "time marches on"...
https://appleinsider.com/articles/1...e-problem-on-the-mac-and-ios-with-these-tools
That isn't a BUG! That's a "Tips and Tricks" Article about the Clipboard!!!
https://www.extremetech.com/computi...-update-10-13-4-breaks-multi-desktop-displays
Duplicate. STILL not Apple's fault. DisplayLink had PLENTY of time with Beta versions to FIX THEIR DRIVER!!!

NOW you're so desparate you are digging into HIGH SIERRA INSTALLATION issues?!?
https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/2/16727238/apple-macos-ios-software-problems-updates
AGAIN, you dig back more than a YEAR, to some issues with PRIOR OSes...
Do you want me to start cataloging the issues with Windows Vista now, too???
MOJAVE Software Issues total: TWO: The "missing key" issue that was causing certain MBPs to throttle, and the "Login" issue I wasn't aware of (so, it likely didn't affect many users at all).
