When Avie Tevanian was still at Apple, every version of MacOS got better: Not just more features, but fewer bugs, better performance etc. Now it seems like you get a visual refresh, a handful of minor features, along with a host of bugs that spend the next year getting fixed until the next release and the cycle repeats.
