I wasn’t been sticking with macOS 12 Monterey on my 2020 27-inch iMac because of concerns about Ventura reliability or app incompatibility. Kernel Panics and Boot Authentication Failures As always, I recommend Joe Kissell’s Take Control of Ventura for upgrade help. So if you’ve been waiting for us to give the go-ahead, I encourage you to upgrade when convenient. (We won’t speak here of the abomination that is Ventura’s System Settings it’s not a reason to avoid upgrading, but it is undeniably awful.) Having the previous release available helps me compare behaviors or interfaces between the two and see if bugs have been fixed or introduced. Even when a new version of macOS is working well, I like to keep one of my Macs on the previous release until I feel confident recommending the upgrade to everyone. You might wonder why I don’t keep my Macs in sync all the time. The longer answer was, “But I still haven’t upgraded my iMac, and once I do, I’ll write about it.” My short answer was, “Yes, it’s fine,” because I have been running Ventura on my M1 MacBook Air since the beta last year and have experienced no problems. TidBITS readers have recently asked me a few times if I think macOS 13 Ventura is mature enough to install on their Macs.
