MacOS has gone downhill like crazy indeed. On an M4, searching my safari history is super slow, searching for a password in the Passwords app is also really slow. I mean these are just lists. Apps steal focus all the time, Finder window column widths reset whenever they feel like, search in Mail sometimes just refuses to work. iCloud tab syncing? haha, not today, maybe next week again. You could probably write a dissertation on the new, new system preferences app.



I have a bug with Safari poor sync since about 4 years (passwords wouldn't correctly update both ways) but the tabs issue was also extremely annoying.

I just went with chrome. I used to really like Safari, I really wanted to use it, but Apple is just not competent enough anymore, no matter how good looking it is, no matter how many interesting features it has, if it doesn't work all is irrelevant.
