I'm on El Capitan because I never want to restart my laptop. And the last time I had a chance to (which was like October)  there were reports that "optimized storage" might turn itself back on after certain updates, and well...fuck that.

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

I don't think I could comfortably swap back to Chrome from Maxthon.  Firefox is always a possibility, but, still low trust.

I don't feel comfortable using a browser developed in Beijing... privacy concerns, mainly.

The Chinese'll have our data eventually.  Sadly I trust Russian, Chinese, and Norwegian companies more than I do U.S. ones.

I know how to disable it, but a few months back when I was going to update I saw a few reports of people who installed one up the Sierra patch updates and it reverted their settings. Whether they didn't change the settings properly in the first place, or accidentally changed it themselves is something that I don't know, but that's something else.

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

That hasn't been my experience. My Mac is as stable as it's ever been -- other than chrome eating up literally every BIT of RAM after a few weeks and forcing me to force quit it.

My mac is fine too. But a lot of people reported getting buggy OS , mostly on the new machines. Which model do you own?? How many gb of ram you have?? I used to get 100% usage with 1.5GB of swap usage. Then I reinstalled the OS, now I am using 50-60% of the ram. 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

Just remember that people are idiots and that it's always the ones with problems who are the loudest. I have a friend who has the non TB model and he's had no issues with it. 

 

Late 2013 15", no dGPU, 16GB.

When I first restart the computer and open everything that's normally open, I sit at around 11GB/16GB used. But after a few weeks of never closing anything (with the same exact load) it ends up at 16GB/16GB and then Chrome freezes and I have to force quit it.

I see. Thanks for the info!

Yeah，I know. Most of the people who bought the latest machine are fine with the machine themselves.

What about multiple screens? Can't have focus on multiple screens but having multiple things opened is kinda the point.

So glad I recently switched to Vivaldi, I don't want this stuff. Even with 8GB of RAM I never use too much and most tabs don't require a lot of computer so their's no need to throttle them.
