I think I was at least one or two major releases behind until last night.
I still have an old Mac running Snow Leopard, and it's good for many things. There, I have Adobe's Creative Suite 6 with a perpetual license, unlike the new Adobe Creative Cloud stuff where I have to pay recurring subscription fees if I want to keep using the new stuff. It also has an old school PDF implementation that can deal with some PDF things that Apple's newer PDF implementation cannot deal with.

Next week, probably.
Of course I'm not so insane to pay for such superfluous toys with my own money, hence I have to go through some bureaucracy to get it.Annnnnd?
Finally.
I was positively surprised how well the migration worked, even across CPU architectures. This is one thing where Mac OS is lightyears ahead of Windows.

... and the problems with the M1 chip have already started. Grr. Maybe I'll put it back in the box for a few months.

@klaus what problems?
Rumor is that Apple might introduce new iMacs tomorrow....perhaps I should wait.

For my M1 MacBook Air, I have decided early on that I will only install on it software that natively supports the Apple silicon. So far that plan is working out nicely. My M1 MacBook Air is performing very well.
The thing I really want to try is run an iOS or iPadOS app on the M1 Mac, but most iOS/iPadOS apps I care to use have not been verified to be able to run on an M1 Mac, and they ones that have been thus verified are not interesting enough for me to bother. So I will wait a bit longer for this.

OK, now I have a serious problem. My Elgato HDMI-to-USB "Cam Link" adapter for my camera isn't working. These days, I need that every single day. Damn.

Solved it by using a different USB port

So, the "Universal Serial Bus" wasn't all that "universal" was it?
