Update: I solved the problem, Internet Connection is working fine again! But only 85% as good as Mojave without some under-the-hood tweaks. So yeah, definitely a step forward from Monterey. Simple crontab fix to stop it from running during work hours:ģ0 20 * * * sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/.plistĠ0 09 * * * sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/.plist It was barely noticeable in Mojave, but with Monterey and Ventura it cannot stay still at all, causing random lags and permanent CPU load. Wasting CPU and burning who knows how much carbon just to re-index Library folder every minute. Now fingers crossed, restoring from such backups will work, but hey, baby steps. I seriously lost all hope with automatic backups, and suddenly this pleasant surprise. This thing became a joke a decade ago, eventually Apple discontinued Time Capsule over these issues, but with Ventura I can actually leave my laptop sleeping and overnight it will complete a backup to my router connected HDD. However, Japanese voices for example still make LOTS of reading mistakes in Kanji characters. New, much improved voices for TTS and spoken content, some of them sound really human-like now with 44kHz rate. And now, in 13.1 Siri performs an action and just disappears, amazing act of courage! She's still dumb as a doorknob though, but we cannot get everything, right? :) At least on Mojave you could press Escape, but in Monterey and first Ventura versions there was no way of closing it apart from clicking the (x) button. Siri prompt now closes by itself after command execution!! Honestly it's mind-blowing it took Apple 6 (or 7?) years to achieve this feat. The OS now feels very snappy, baseline load is under 5% with almost all productivity apps running, no issues with connectivity and bluetooth. Mojave.Īs Monterey was seriously affecting my productivity, I had to move on to Ventura, and the initial update was just okay, but with 13.1 Apple really delivered some long overdue fixes. I could spend only couple weeks on that sluggish mess with spotlight out of control, persistent iCloud issues, and most importantly - almost NO useful features over 3-4 y.o. Gradually more and more software stopped receiving updates under Mojave, so I had to bite the bullet and upgrade to Monterey. I use MacOS for work, so the only thing I care about is stability and speed. I've been on Mojave till last month, as every MacOS iteration after Mojave was just about adding more bugs and never fixing existing ones.
