-----(Frowns.) Well, that's a bit of a kludge to work around bad UI/UX design in that it's now hard to tell which tab's active and which isn't. (There should be enough room on a desktop or laptop computer's screen to display both the identifying site icon, for those who want it, and the 'close tab' control. Guess I'll be leaving icons off like in older versions of Safari, then; ah, well, I'm used to it that way, anyway.) This wouldn't've been a problem if Apple hadn't needlessly changed the interface.

i don't get it; in dark mode (at least), the current tab is highlighted, bright enough to stand out from the other tabs. and the icons/close tabs seem simple, smart; how many icons, buttons, etc does one need? it's an icon, you go to click on it, it's a 'x'. i think apple's moving things forward in a good way, i don't think it's 'needless' at all...

Based on how the beta is progressing, anyone here comfortable upgrading their main machine on day one?

I am using it since Beta 1 or 2... was just waiting for initial comments.
I use it on my main (work) machine. Something I would NOT recommend. To ANYONE.
But overall it is rock solid. Like a more stable version of Big Sur.

Only real issue I am having right now... is that my Exchange account is buggy in Apple Mail and I need to sign in manually every few minutes...

I mean... YMMV, depending on what specific software you rely on, that may or may not work. But as a generalized statement... I'd say it's better than Big Sur.

well yes, apple software full of bugs is new normal, just shut up and consume

am sure that can't be addressed to me; besides, all software has bugs, but if someone is not experiencing a certain issue, should they aggressively try to induce that issue? or is it ok to get on with their life, and continue working, surfing...
 
I'm looking forward to the new release. In the past it was a mid-late September release. Has that now changed to November?
 
Was wondering the same thing. The update cadence has certainly diverted from iOS as the progress seems to have slowed.
 
how is Universal Control?

One way to work across your devices​

A single keyboard and mouse or trackpad now work seamlessly between your Mac and iPad — they’ll even connect to more than one Mac or iPad. Move your cursor from your Mac to your iPad, type on your Mac and watch the words show up on your iPad, or even drag and drop content from one Mac to another.

anyone use this feature yet, and will this work on 3rd party apps?
thank you in advance!

umm never mind, tim cooks does not like my iPad anymore starting on Monterey
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a feature in which the user icon, if a Memoji, would animate whenever you turned on your computer and typed your password? I don't seem to see this in 12.0.1.

I remember seeing that as well! Maybe it was just an animation in the keynote or something that wasn’t an actual feature in the OS but I know what you’re talking about.
