Yeah, Apple hate circlejerk pretending you have a work and a work MBP.
Keep frying burgers.

For real though I got a 15" macbook pro retina and it was worse than expected. I got it because of music production/video editing but I really regretted my decision later on. I KNEW the razor thin profile was gonna result in poor cooling but I went on and bought it anyway because everybody recommended it.
Anyway 2 returned laptops later (first throttling and next throttling + dead keyboard) I threw in the towel and got a shitty HP laptop at costco. The fucking hinge broke on it and it's infested with adware and spyware but it's better than the macbook I had.
Should have got an actual workstation for that shit "Apple for media" is a meme that hasn't been true since PowerPC was good 15 years ago

It still persists though.

This. If you don't have a Retina Macbook Pro, you can't be considered as a serious professional.

tl;dr I clicked update and it updated my system, and not all third party software supports it yet reeee
It persists without good basis. I have to admit however I do work more on my Mac since it is harder to get distracted by stuff. Less options basically.

>>dark mode doesn't work in most applications and to only way to turn it off on a per application basis is running a couple commands in terminal which is fine but should just have an option in the system menu PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SHARE

Wipe your SSD/HDD and reinstall your OS, thats all you can do. Thats how most stuff gets fixed after a major release update

If you're a developer and you use anything other than a macbook pro, you're doing it wrong.

If you "have to" use any particular machine for work, your job is shit.

Apple gets a lot of reasonable shit for what they do but this seems like bait. I have a 2013 MacBook Air and Mojave has caused literally no issues.
and if this actually happened, have you just considered a system restore? How haven’t you done one of the most universal fixes across all hardware and software platforms if you have undocumented bugs?
Sebastian Barnes
'17 MBP here. I had issues with Mojave as well. It broke MS office and Photoshop, and throttled my Wi-Fi connection to 1MBps. Really weird errors.
Ended up restoring back to High Sierra. I might do a wipe and fresh install, but at this point I think it may be better to avoid it for work computers.
Evan Price
Apple is not as good as it once was, that's for sure.
>Stupid notch >Mojave bugs >Lack of any signifiant updates to the iMac or MBP >Tim cook is a raging faggot >Apple panders to gays and minorities in its advertising
They need to get their shit together. Still better than anything MS makes I suppose.
