Allan Posted Tuesday at 11:01 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:01 PM Now I can say that Apple "copied-paste" Microsoft 100% All the macOS "improvements" could be made in a just Tahoe system update - Just like Windows 4 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2850998 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it runs much smoother than the actual macOS 26.5.1 considering all the Intel  code and kernel binaries already removed from it plus the GUI/UX improvements. I would install on a separate partition I would create in my M4 mini if it’s really worth testing it. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851010 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludox Posted Wednesday at 06:26 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:26 PM As soon as I have some time I'll install it on my 15" MacBook Air M4 so I can test it. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max.1974 Posted Wednesday at 06:33 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:33 PM 1 hora atrás, jlrycm disse: Olá@Max.1974o dev beta é muito buggy? Ouvi dizer que ele funciona muito mais suavemente do que o macOS 26.5.1 real, considerando todos os binários Intel e binários do kernel já removidos dele, além das melhorias GUI/UX. Eu instalaria em uma partição separada que criaria no meu M4 mini se realmente valesse a pena testá-lo.  Hello my friend,  So far everything is fine here. I haven’t noticed any bugs yet. In fact, my applications are running well. I did lose support for some older apps, but the system still asked me to install Rosetta.  For example, MaciASL doesn’t run, but Clover Configurator does, as well as Word, Excel, and other applications.    1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851014 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the budget for me this year, so fortunately the hacks are doing extremely well and no compelling reason to move to macOS 27.  I'm planning to look at used M4 MacBooks next year.

SevenTheAppleKitty Posted Thursday at 01:00 AM Share Posted Thursday at 01:00 AM Now I really want a silicon mac. That might've been apple's intention, though. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851017 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max.1974 Posted Thursday at 06:50 AM Share Posted Thursday at 06:50 AM To compile Clover on the new system, the deployment target must be 12 or higher. Xcode no longer supports a 10.6 deployment target.  https://github.com/maxpicelli/Clover-Compiler-Builder/releases/tag/Clover    Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851021 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max.1974 Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Hi  guys, I uninstalled Golden Gate on my M4 Pro because a few bugs are interfering with two of my essential professional activities.  First, Firefox no longer receives passwords directly; authentication now only works via code and through Safari. Second, VS Code with the Chat for Copilot extension is unable to sign in to GitHub.  Additionally, compiling older apps such as Clover, which require deployment targets as far back as macOS 10.6, is no longer possible, as it only accepts macOS 12 as the minimum target.  For these reasons, I have already erased Golden Gate and reinstalled Tahoe.  Good luck to the new users testing it. In my opinion, however, only a few things have changed, and nothing particularly extraordinary.    2 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish_Man Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago From what I can tell, this release isn’t about improvements—it’s about dropping Intel. I installed it on an external NVMe drive connected to my Mac mini M4, and I can really notice a difference in speed. I'll give them that. As for new features, there’s practically nothing worth mentioning. New Siri? Big deal. I haven’t tested everything yet, but so far, nothing really stands out. 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362867-apple-unveils-macos-golden-gate/#findComment-2851045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
