macOS Ventura bugs

Although I didn't pay too much attention in the last few months, I'm noticing a few unusual things with macOS Ventura:


  1. Standby Battery: My Mac battery drains out completely in a couple of days on standby (from 100% to 0% with no use).
  2. Switched OFF battery: My Mac drains battery even if the laptop is shutdown. This is very absurd. I had this exact same problem with my iPhone a couple of years back. The problem sorted itself out after 6 months or so.
  3. Firewall is not working properly: Block all incoming connections switch can be turned ON, but if I close the Settings app and reopen it, I find it is turned OFF.
  4. Storage: Free storage reported is changing constantly. Today I see I have gained about 10 GB free space. I don't know if any of my files are gone. Never seen something like this before. Free space viewed from other user accounts on the device also differs widely.
  5. Photos details missing:



All these started with macOS Ventura, although I'm not sure with which build exactly. Battery drain problem was there before 13.3.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.3
