I had enough of Catalina, i only used it because i like Apple notes., literally nothing else., unless i missed something like a audio app that only runs in Catalina.

I re installed majove, my older 2013 macbook pro and imac both seem happier, faster..maybe cause i use vpn and lil snitch yo now block out Apple everything traffic., maybe will use catalina inside parallel desktop to check my notes since i sync em with my ipad pro and iPhone ..

so are others staying in majove?
I noticed the new logic pro does not appear to be compatible , same with imovie etc

 

If you plan on updating in the future APFS is mandatory...

 

I can always start over cause nothing went seem-less last time i went from majove to catalina….2018
But are you using majove with afps?

 

I'm on big sur, which requires apfs same as catalina, if you have Mojave installed on an HFS+ partition, you will not be able to update, and you wont be receiving any sort of security update even if you manage to install catalina on a hfs+, so if you ask me, Big sur is a bit mature now with most of bugs fixed, go the apfs route and install big sur.

 

I know BigSur sux a55, has backdoor to check your apps., everything steve jobs stood against.

so any majove users with hfs? Not planning on upgrading here. , just loading all the audio stuff i can find, isnt this the reason your here too ?

Come on guys you can do better then this? Why keep it a secret, is majove with hfs+ The best way to run any app cause afps causes issues or are you guys running majove with afps and have no problems?

 

I payed for a full license of it, but I do not use little snitch. I use Lulu. It is lighter (and free). I am using this "firewall" application to prevent applications on my computer from having access to the internet.

I do not have it installed to show you some cpu/resource comparison between the two. But it is worth noting, because while these programs may be small in install size, etc.; they are constantly running. Look into what Little Snitch is running like.
