It would be awesome if MacRumors supported Safari's automatic Dark Mode. Is there a Xenforo Add-on of some sorts that makes use of feature yet?

I wonder if we'll ever see Photos.app updated to do sharing of albums with icloud.com links.
Being able to share a crapload of photos in a web link is one of my favorite new features in iOS 12 and it's missing from MacOS.

Mac, as usually, taking the back seat. Getting released last.
It's okay, we got used to it already.

For a second I thought they forgot about macOS Mojave 10.14.4. I already updated my iPhone and Apple TVs, now the MacBook Pro and I am ready for the AirPods tomorrow.
