Third macOS Tahoe 26.3 Beta Now Available for Developers

[Zmac1]

+1.
As a new Mac user, I find it exceptionally stable on Tahoe. I haven't updated my iPhone yet, but 26.2 beta ran perfectly on my M1 MBP. Yesterday’s .3 update feels just as solid.

No problems here on two different MacBook Airs

No problems on MacBook Pro too.

What are you talking about. It was not the interface that was the issue with Vista, in fact that is one of its positives.

That is a bogus rewrite of history. The UI was despised and is the quickest a Windows UI has ever been dropped. If it was a positive it would have lasted as long as their other UIs. It lasted less time than Metro which was also ridiculed.

NO! Don't do it. I tried Tahoe for almost 4 months.

Yep, if you skipped High Sierra or Catalina, it's likely you'll want to skip Tahoe.

Did we learn nothing from Windows VISTA???

Apparently less than nothing. Vista's UI was more legible than Tahoe's.

We are at 26.3 beta3 now and Apple still could not fix that annoying Dock Folder jump issue

The vast majority of the issues I submitted to Apple are still unfixed. They only asked for feedback for 2 or 3 of them.

5 years from now they will respond to a couple out of the dozens of submitted issues with "Please retest on GarbageOS v32.481" and you'll not hear again from them for another 5 years. It's how it works, I've submitted tons of issues over 10-15 years and the great majority aren't fixed and will never be fixed and will never receive a response and are marked as <Successfully Ignored: User Capitulated> in the dumb "issue resolution" system they use internally.

Spotlight indexing related. Running sudo mdutil -E / seems to have fixed it maybe.

Now getting 20 or 30 or these crashes a day — hope beta 4 fixes it. Other friends seeing the same.

I have had 130 mdworker_shared crashes with macOS 26.3 beta 3 since 28 January! Apple FBA shows 0 similar reports but I know for a fact that others are reporting this. Make a backup using Chronosync instantly triggers a whole train of crashes.
