I am loving Catalina. The new Reminders app is a huge upgrade that allowed me to stop relying on shoddy third party apps. Using Apple Watch to authenticate is handy. Sidecar is useful as hell on business trips. iTunes is no longer a bloated unorganized mess of an application. Safari is dramatically better. Photos is better. Having screen time data on my Mac is great.

Catalyst has brought a handful of new macOS apps for me to use that were not available previously. Several that I use on a daily basis.

And I haven’t experienced any bugs or issues.

So I guess your mileage will vary. But if you hate macOS enough to write TWO blog posts about it why don’t you just switch to another platform???




What Catalyst applications are you using? I haven't heard of any beyond Apple News, Swift Playgrounds, and I think maybe Twitter? Definitely interested in trying more.


Carrot Weather, JIRA, and Rosetta Stone. There may be others that are Catalyst that I am not even aware of. But I use those three heavily on a daily basis.
