Sep 20, 2016 10:28 PM in response to dastoelkby Alchroma,I would say you are the only one that should make the call to update.
What I will say is that there is no updating or anything funky for existing Projects to work with Sierra.
One thing that is cosmetically scrambled is the timecode field.
Other than that it seems fine.
As usual there will be some quirks that will come to light as more users jump to Sierra.

Sep 27, 2016 9:18 PM in response to Alchromaby StaceTee,★HelpfulThe #1 rule of thumb for FCP X, is to have all clips backed up on an external HHD. I have FCP X, with the latest firmware update. And, had no problem upgrading to Sierra. I have since, worked on a couple of my previously started projects, and all's well. It's safe for you to upgrade to Sierra, without any hiccups from FCP X.

…
over, at my Homebase fcp.co, we've collected so far some cosmetic issues, on some set-ups …
some notice the ol' TC window glitch (that line thru the display), or
in the Inspector pane, all points are 'collapsed' and 'show/hide' doesn't show up/show.
Fix: trashing prefs (cmd-opt on launch)
and: some notice issues with text-effects (erratically not working) ... if, again, trashing prefs doesn't fix it, you're in serious trouble

Sep 29, 2016 6:43 AM in response to dastoelkby Nick Toth,Based on what I am seeing on fcp.co I would avoid updating to Sierra until FCPX is updated.
There were small issues with FCPX and El Capitan before FCPX got updated but nothing earthshaking.
There seem to be quite a few serious ones under Sierra however.

yep, at last on productive/commercially used systems…
actually all 'flaws' are in the area of cosmetics/UI, haven't read about 'real' flaws.... yet
Just to iterate general advice to any early adopters (like me):
Don't hesitate to send Apple a feedback

You're right. Nothing is going to be done to fix 10.2.3 in Sierra.

Absolutely NOT!
