I think most popular OS's these days have >5000 open bugs and some may get attention if they actually break something serious enough. Others may get plastered over in a new major OS update, which opens another 1000 bugs or so. I have no problem with a rolling number of bugs, but this is a tiny list of age-old bugs. I'd like to be in the room when Apple's people decide what to work on, but I bet I would get depressed instantly since they obviously don't use their products.

Definitely moving in the direction of "what is good for a particular PM" and not "what is good for the user." I would have switched to linux years ago if it were not for the great hardware and I like having access to iMessages from the desktop.
Yeah and I think Apple know from their telemetry that too many users (including me) are sticking with macOS 15 Sequoia, which they need to address with macOS 27 this year (but given how they are, it'll just be Apple Intelligence)
