Sequoia posse unite! Going to update to 15.8 and hold out for a couple of weeks until 27.0.1. Just say no to Tahoe.

I hope they include at least some fixes for the mess they are leaving the intel users with.

Let me know if 15.8 silently breaks anything like 14.8.4 did.

Updated to MacOS 27 from Sequoia this morning - aside from the round corners, which are a bit offputting, everything seems pretty OK. First time in possibly over 10 years or more I haven't waited for the .1 release. Definitely grateful the post-install setup let me turn off some of the most offending transparency of Liquid Glass right out of the gate - my now older eyes also need the opacity and higher contrast more then they did 20 years ago when I first joined here on MR. My youngest kiddo (13.5 y/o) runs her iPhone on almost entire transparency and low light, which she claims is "better," LOL.
