    Upgrade to High Sierra, or Stay on Low Sierra?

    I just recently received my 2017 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar 15". It's still on Sierra. Should I stay on Sierra, or is it safe to go to a non dev version of High Sierra? I was reading of the 560 issues with waking on High Sierra, and Im not sure if that was only a beta.

    Autofill one at a time?

    Not sure if this is an OSX question or a Chrome question but... Is there a way to autofill one entry at a time instead of changing all possible entries on a page at once?
