Apple Seeds Fourth Beta of macOS Big Sur 11.5 to Developers

Apple today seeded the fourth beta of an upcoming macOS Big Sur 11.5 update to developers for testing purposes, with the new beta coming two weeks after the release of the third macOS Big Sur 11.5 beta.

macOS Big Sur Feature Blue
Developers can download the ‌‌‌‌macOS Big Sur‌‌‌‌ 11.5 beta using the Software Update mechanism in System Preferences after installing the proper profile from the Apple Developer Center.

macOS Big Sur 11.5 may be a more minor update focusing on under-the-hood performance improvements and bug fixes for issues that weren't able to be addressed in the macOS Big Sur 11.4 update. No new features were found in the first three betas.

Big Sur was so 2020. Just run Monterey if you are gonna have bugs anyway ;)
New and improved bugs.

Dang! I wish I had thought of calling it that first, so fitting.
I've seen a lot of people call it that on these forums. Though it's been fairly stable and smooth to me. From a stability perspective certainly as good as Mojave
But just found it funny :P
