Looks like macOS 26 Tahoe made my #Arturia MiniFuse 4 inoperable until Arturia comes out with an update (it's Arturia's fault for not keeping up, though).

Therefore, does anyone have an audio interface that currently works with macOS 26?

Anyone else see the window for the Music app on #macOS26Tahoe not remembering its position or size after quitting and restarting the app? It's a ridiculous bug and is a really awful #UX.

100% reproducible for me on macOS 26.1. Anyone know if macOS 26.2 fixes it?

So #macOS26 ruined the interface for Apple Music.

The player at the bottom is… awful.

You know it's bad when you consider writing a Music player app to replace/use instead of the one that comes with your OS.

Anyone experiencing really slow #TestFlight processing or builds just not showing up?

It would be really helpful it if #Xcode could help you write and evaluate JavaScript in a multiline string in Swift (for use with a #WKWebView), maybe even with syntax highlighting.

I'm surprised this wasn't a thing a long time ago.
