Is anyone else experiencing random OS crashes after installing Catalina? Since updating a couple of weeks ago my MacBook Pro has crashed at least a dozen times. I have been sending the crash reports to Apple and am waiting for a potential solution. I have never had a problem with any previous OS releases.

I installed Catalina without supplemental update on my wife's 2016 12-inch Macbook few days after it came out and she didn't have any issues with it to this day.

I have installed the update which is probably why I am having these issues.
It seems to run fine on older hardware. I have the maxed out 2019 iMac and am getting 4+ kernel panics a day. Only happens when I leave my system on idle for a bit.

My MacBook Pro is a mid 2014 model and crashes when I am active. There has just been an OS update released. Let's see if this fixes the issue.

Same with me regarding the update. Installing it now and will test for my kernel panics.

Alas after the update and playing CS:GO my MacBook Pro crashed. This needs to get fixed ASAP.
