Nope, Sidecar memory leak still existsWeren’t they all finally fixed on macOS 12.5?

They do that, and the Mac platform would be dead. Every developer would abandon it for Windows and Linux. Developers avoid the Mac App Store like the plague since they have miles better options, and if those options were taken away, then we would see a developer exodus larger than the OpenGL exodus in 2018.It won't be long before you can only install apps from the Mac App Store and have only limited access to the file system. All in the name of privacy and security.
You can see at ~4 seconds that the update is for Ventura Beta 3 [public]If this was from the 10th - which is looks like, then the update was the Xcode command line tools update.
What do you mean by 'dumb it down' ?I hate the new System Settings app on macOS Ventura. I will be sticking with Monterey for a while I think. I don't see why they had to change it. There is nothing wrong with how it functions now. It feels like they are trying to dumb it down to an iPad level.

It sucks because the first couple of betas the OS was near flawless, but now these recent seeds have broken everything. Speaker popping issues for MBPs came back, Stage Manager is busted opening windows on it's own, preview is broken, status updates are being treated as windows in stage manager, and of course instant wake from sleep, one of the biggest defining traits about Apple Silicon, is busted going back to x86 wake speeds.Same here. I'm not seeing any settings listed now for this, and I'm also finding that my M1 MBP either wakes from sleep after maybe 5-10 seconds (after pressing a number of keys on the keyboard, moving the trackpad, or resting my finger on the Touch ID/Power button), or it just doesn't wake from sleep at all and reboots. It's no wonder why there wasn't a Ventura Beta Release yesterday. Stick it back in the oven and let it cook some more.
Agree to disagree. SwiftUI for Mac has some very rough edges that cut into the user experience. Things that AppKit has been doing right all along.
Breaking news:Betasoftware isn't 100% perfect.
Have you not watched the above video? There are categories where tab groups that were originally in System Preferences have been removed for no other reason than they’re not part of SwiftUI - to the detriment of usability.Current SS almost looks and behaves like a Windows Control Panel from 90sRandom icons, random order, each sub-section different, completely inconsistent and different from any other device SS we're using right now. Now you see why they had to change it

Yeah, it’s clear that they’re working towards a single OS. The only difference between the platforms then will how the system features scale; iPhone have the least, Mac having the most."We are not working towards a single OS for all devices" -Apple all the time
As I look at the new setting app....hard not to see where this is going eventually.
You have to be super quick and unsend it in 10 secondsI had to ask here on the forum how to use "Unsend a Message" in Mail because I couldn't see it. I opened a ticket for a feature request to remove a Reminder in Mail. It took them 6 weeks to answer that there is a gesture available. The gesture shows a white on yellow icon.
Since getting it in Lion, Gatekeeper has been harder to disable or turn off entirely.People have been claiming that since OSX Lion got a Gatekeeper setting in Preferences.
completely broken? as in unusable, unworkable, crashes your computer, aka Windows? Not seeing it at all. The only thing Ventura has trouble with is the beta of the Brave browser - crashes on open, but that may be a brave issue, seeing it is not happening elsewhere. other than that, I have had 0 bugs. so I'd say, completely working and completely usable.Long time Mac users: "We want more macOS on i(Pad)OS."
Apple: "We think iOS users want to see more of it on macOS, but we didn't ask anyone and we're gonna do it in a hurry"
I don't really understand why Apple wants to port iOS stuff to macOS. The (back then) refreshed Airport Utility is a complete disaster, lost functionality and is generally harder to use. And this has been with all the apps Apple is porting from iOS. Yes, we have apps like Stocks now, but does it behave and act like a truly native Mac app? Well, after all those years it's getting close, but we're still not there yet. The Music app is still a native Mac app from the core, but all functionality that Apple didn't have to change from iTunes was changed and vice versa.
But the new Settings app is setting a new example for total awkwardness. macOS isn't a vertical system, yet they introduce a vertical UI (as it comes from iOS). It doesn't feel like a Mac app and doesn't behave like one. System Preferences isn't perfect, but at least everything is clear. macOS isn't iOS, but Apple doesn't understand that while they do say so. I generally hope they don't ship it and avoid another discoveryd fiasco.
This isn't just beta software. It's completely broken and will be almost impossible to properly fix. A few issues can certainly arise when something goes into beta, but this is just a disaster.
All fine here in Ventura beta land too. Don't believe everything that you readiTunes and System Preferences all fine here in smug Mojave land.
try turning on the scroll bars, dahHow many people will never find half of their preferences because of that idiotic default of not showing a scroll bar unless you are actually scrolling? There's no visual cue whatsoever that the sidebar is scrollable.
When I read "inconsistent use and erratic behavior of basic UI elements", the first thing I thought was, "they built it with SwiftUI".This is exactly why my company has opted to not develop apps using SwiftUI yet.
