I will literally pay 499/year, maybe even more, for a "macOS Pro" that removes all the shareholder-pushed consumer BS (No AI, no genmoji, garageband, bloatware Tips, News, and TV apps etc.) and is just rock solid snow leopard 10.6.8 syle constant performance, compatibility, stability updates and nothing else. like basically windows 10 LTSC

Part of the allure of macOS is that it was built as a UNIX-compliant operating system, which keeps it broadly compatible with a wealth of third-party software.

I fear that Apple has lost sight of that, and is making macOS more proprietary by the year, to a point where it may no longer be UNIX-compliant.

Lets hope that never happens.

What I'd really like is support for RAW files with Canon's R5 Mark II camera. I would hate to have to wait until macOS 16 for that.
Nah, instead you're gonna get more AI generated emojis and RAM hogging widgets for shopping apps and you'll like it.

Network issues, buggy safari, buggy finder, first time in years all 3 computers freeze randomly, spotlight is an unusable garbage. But wait we have Genmoji so we can be more productive. :confused:

Long story short. Nothing interesting or important. The next iOS and macOS release will look and work the same but there will be more Apple “Intelligence” features that won’t work and the main abillity of it will be to make you sound stupid in your automated e-mails.
