I'm still a few OS releases behind so I'm not used to paying attention to updates, but does this seem like an atypically high amount of RCEs?

Nope, they all have this many :)

What do you upgrade for? Using Mac for music production means never updating immediately, and maybe not at all.

  I use the Nvidia GPU drivers, so I'll upgrade if Apple ever agrees to sign Nvidia's binaries for new OS releases (fat chance!)

        I heard the issue is that you lose some functionality from someone who did that. I wonder if it will exist with the M1 as well.

      Sorry I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at. Does this patcher let you use the High Sierra Nvidia drivers in Mojave?
      - GhettoComputers 5y ago
        I think it is the drivers linked. Try it on an external first.

If it works for you - maybe it's better to wait. Monterey is the trashiest version of Mac OS I ever saw. Full of bugs.

  Worst than Yosemite?

  This seems to be said every release, and for a while it was definitely true, but I think Catalina was a low point and it’s improved since then.

  Such as? I've been using it daily since release and honestly haven't had a single problem.

    Lucky you! Here you can find some examples: https://reddit.com/r/macbookpro/ https://reddit.com/r/macbookpro/ I’ll not go into my personal relationships with Monterey, only global statistics matter, but I can say that right now I’m trying to not reboot my system accidentally because one of the issues accidentally disappeared and I don't know what caused it.

      Not sure how that sub-reddit looked during the Catalina days, but I can't imagine it had fewer bug reports. I don't see anything particularly serious either from scrolling quickly. Your experience certainly sounds like a shitty one though.
