Ask HN: Should I upgrade to tahoe (macOS 26) or not?

4 points by boars_tiffs ↗ HN
After using iOS 26, I'm having mixed feelings about upgrading to macOS 26.

Does the new design look cartoonish on mac as well? Are other new features worth an upgrade? I was looking forward to trying out the iPhone app.

Certainly wait until 26.0.1 or whatever the first bugfix update is named.
Never update your laptop to the first release of a new macOS.
For all the mainstream hate, I've actually found it OK to use. It feels a bit worse, UI-wise (too much wasted space), but I haven't found any "bugs" so far.

I like that I was able to replace Maccy with Spotlight's clipboard search so far.
