Why no rumors about macOS 14?

[KoolAid-Drink]

I noticed a dire lack of rumors about macOS 14, which seems a bit unusual. I remember rumors about Shortcuts.app coming to Monterey way before WWDC, and other various rumors. I remember Yosemite's new UI being revealed before WWDC revealed it. Heck, even iOS 17 has a few small rumors surrounding it.

How come there has been zero rumors about macOS 14? I'm intrigued and curious!

Hopefully it won't be a feature release but a bug fixing one.

Either Apple has suddenly gotten much better at containing leaks, or there's just really nothing exciting about the next version of macOS.

Which possibility do you think is more likely?

We don't need more half done features (cough stage manager cough) or software breaking changes. Fix bugs and finish stuff you started

I agree with the above that hopefully the lack of rumours means Apple is working on more of a performance and bug fixing release for this year.

They're still trying to get OS 13 to work...

 

[unrigestered]

they really want to surprise us this time with some major improvements like even more emojis or Dynamic Island finally coming to slapped onto macOS

Hopefully fixing Safari, because I'm experiencing a lot of bugs.

Not really. The iOS threads will keep you up to date with rumours about forthcoming emoji. What else do you expect?
