Never update all your devices at the same time.

Always have a designated survivor so you can complain on MacRumors.

Snappier? In 15.0.1 Safari will grab you by the neck, smash your head into a wall, steal your wallet and use it to wine and dine the MILF who lives down the street leaving her your contact information so 9 months later you’ll be getting a surprise knock on your door.

Why does everyone ask if their particular issue is fixed when that issue is not mentioned in the release notes and is not blathered about in general? Magic?
Because Apple consistently refuses to admit bugs and include the fix in the release notes.
