I installed me some macOS Catalina beta (on my main computer, no less) and—though there's some annoying little bugs—the only real problems I've had have been with third-party app incompatibility.

@kimpegasus Yeah, Catalina is about as solid as macOS betas usually tend to be by this point in the process. The loss of 32-bit app compatibility is unfortunate, but we had warning of that with Mojave and I’m pretty much at peace with it.

@casta That’s only really killed off Steam for me (which has apparently had a 64-bit beta version in the works for like 18 months), I more just mean that some third party apps just bug out randomly when I’m trying to use them. Won’t register clicks, the odd random crash, the like.

@kimpegasus Oh! Yeah, that’s super annoying. The MacRumors forums are a pack of applehell, but the app compatibility list is always handy. Steam can get its 64-bit shit together any minute now 😖
