I don't know if you just skimmed the article or deliberately misrepresenting its arguments to make your point. Either way, this behavior deserves a downvote in my book. > Guy installed beta software and it was buggy. STOP THE PRESSES!!!! The author is describing the experience on the stable point-zero release of the OS. He only mentions beta to set up the context. > "I'm a pro user, I've functionally given escalated privs to apps that steal my data, every Electron container POS ever written, and 100 open standards only Chrome supports. How DARE Apple ask desktop users for permissions on upgrade!?!?!? Keep that security stuff for smartphone users – filthy casuals." That's pretty much the opposite of what the author is actually saying in the article. You're misrepresenting quite agressively. > Forgot Password Sure, that's possible. It's also entirely possible, given poor overall quality of the release, that it's an OS' fault. > Somehow my hostname changed during a system update. Are you saying it's not an issue worth mentioning? I disagree.
