No longer can select an alternative default email client:

Looks like the ability to select an alternative default email client has been removed (or moved to an unknown location). It used to be at the top of the "General" preference pane in Mail.

Check if it's in the Generals Preference Pane. You can also set the Default Browser there.

In OS X each app can set itself as the default app, so the other mail clients can just implement that feature themselves.

Now with tabs in every app, does this mean the Preview.app gets tabs, too?

Every Youtube video is only showing the tabs feature with Pages...just how Apple showed it at WWDC.

I'd also like to know which are the keyboard shortcuts to cycle through tabs. Are they like in Terminal (command-curly brackets) or like in Safari (ctrl-tab)?

Can someone check if Photoshop and other Adobe CC apps are able to snap? At the moment none of the snapping apps were able to resize those windows.

I was not able to get Photoshop CC to snap with Illustrator CC.

It's like in Safari (ctrl+tab and shift+ctrl+tab). Terminal in Sierra works both ways.

Is anyone else having major lag and beachball issues with Safari? Firefox on the other hand runs like a dream.

The option for default browser in the General Preferences pane was in OS X long before Windows 10 existed.

No, the default browser option was moved to System Preferences > General in El Capitan. In Yosemite and earlier it was located in the Safari preferences, meaning you had to launch Safari to change your default browser away from Safari. Rather counterintuitive.

They could be doing the same with Mail in Sierra, but haven't gotten around to making the setting in System Preferences > General yet.

It was moved to System Preferences > General well before El Capitan.

It's been moved in Yosemite already.

Hmm, I remembered this being one of the little things in the El Capitan beta. Could be wrong though, or maybe it was moved in a Yosemite update. It's definitely in the old location in Mavericks.
[doublepost=1466951785][/doublepost]The volume/brightness level overlay has been very slightly tweaked in dark mode. El Capitan on the left, Sierra on the right.

That looks like a terrible design decision – in the new style, it is harder to tell how close to maximum volume you are. Then again, maybe it's a bug.

That's my thought, too. But then again, we are talking about the new Jony Ive UI design philosophy here…

Install from Anywhere is gone? That really, really sucks. I wonder if you can still override it by right clicking, or option clicking, or whatever the way they built in to manually override Gatekeeper.

sudo spctl --master-disable <--- this fixes it and restores it already selected by default, nothing further to do ;)
