I recently moved from Mojave to Big Sur and I sure am feeling this. My Wacom tablet keeps on not being recognized when I wake from sleep. Safari's constantly using a huge chunk of my CPU and typing stuff into a text box in it is often painfully slow. There's a bunch of little constant aggravations and really nothing that's improved my life beyond "the latest version of Illustrator wouldn't work on Mojave". Which I haven't even upgraded to because I'm waiting for the .1 release of that. Apple keeps on moving shit around on OSX for no good reason and it's just annoying.

The latest Safari is by far the buggiest thing I've seen out of Apple in some time. It fucking crashed on me the other day! That in addition to multiple bad behaviors and glitches. But then, I don't do betas and usually wait until the first big patch to update the OS.

  Today Apple Mail crashed on me while sending ab E-Mail. And I‘m still on Big Sur.

I dug around and found a fix for the "constantly eats all my CPU" issue: Turn on "compact" tab layout. Which then creates the problem that now I'm using the "compact" tab layout that everyone in the betas screamed bloody murder about until they added that switch, god this layout is really annoying if you have any extensions up in the toolbar and/or more than about four tabs. But at least I don't have to deal with using fucking Chrome or losing all my text expansion shortcuts because Firefox refuses to support those. My inner paranoid wonders if this is a deliberate tactic to boost the numbers of people using the "compact" layout by someone whose next performance review is riding on that layout: "see, boss, look at what the telemetry says - everyone's switching to Compact! We should just drop the old look and give me a major bonus!".

  The new Safari design looks 100x worse than the fake leather ever did. The UI team should be ashamed of themselves. It wouldn't have happened under Joni.
