Wait... Resolve uses Electron? It's not for the main GUI, is it?

It's surprising and disappointing that Apple didn't catch a bug like this in QA. This affects popular apps, and many people will have at least one of these apps with outdated Electron frameworks.

It's not surprising. It's sadly predictable that forced annual scheduled OS updates that must ship ready or not will ship when they're not ready.

Apple abandoned any commitment to QA as soon as they committed to mid-September becoming a magical date, practically written in stone.

it's been a while since you used macos? apple has completely stopped giving a shit, extremely basic functionality like spotlight and settings search have been completely broken for years now...

I just can't believe how dysfunctional something as basic as search over settings is now.

As a daily driver of MacOS, I've not notice anything being wrong with spotlight or settings. Is there something specific that is broken?

I use spotlight constantly for everything, but I admit I don't use the search feature in settings all that often.

It was Electron causing a shadow repaint, not Apple:

It only became an issue when Apple's update made it an issue. This is on Apple.

Why is it on Apple to make sure that their private APIs (as in you SHOULDN'T USE THEM, because they will change without regard to your software) are backward compatible?

That haven't been updated.

Sigh
