macOS Monterey - anyone upgraded to it yet?

I almost did last night, but then had a change of heart - might just see what others think or wait for the initial set of bug-fixes first :lol:

No they did not, the default setup might have changed, not sure I didn’t use them much because it used to annoy me if I mistakenly triggered them. It is a bit strange with the quick note one though because when you pop the cursor into the quick note corner it becomes a button to create a new note, but when you have it set to any of the other actions then it just happens. While I get that others might disagree: I’d almost prefer it if they all followed this pattern as it is similarly fast but not something that happens by accident, regardless it makes the quick note one feel out of place in a lot of ways.

Got Monterey since day one, as I have an Apple Developer account. The beta was good, but I feel like Apple is not pushing the features of macOS as far as they do for iOS/iPadOS.

In Safari 15 for macOS that was released a while back (and the beta I believe) you had two options for the tabs. Both of them had them look more like regular buttons than a tab from a tab index, something that has been highly debated since it was first announced:

But with the release of Monterey, Apple had reverted back to the old look (there is still an option called compact that puts them on the same row as the address bar):
