Q: HELP! I'm having a problem with not having a problem with OS X Sierra 10.12

I see a lot of threads with users reporting problem with OS 10.12 Sierra and asking why did Apple release such a buggy OS when they knew there were problems and everyone is having problems. I'm very concerned my 6 year old Mac Pro is not exhibiting any of these problems, not even slightly.  Even more concerning is Apple is not acting fast enough to fix other developers software problems for them. Developers don't have time to test their code let alone fix it when a problem occurs.

 

Why is Apple dragging their feet with all the patching every 3rd party developers is entitled to for writing a mac program, and more importantly why isn't Apple writing the software for my 3rd party hardware that the developers didn't bother to make because they no longer wish to support their 3rd party device? If I buy a printer to use with my Mac and it no longer work after 5 OS X iterations Apple needs to step up and support my loyalty to that other brand, thats the way it works with Windows, actually it doesn't but lets not get into that right now.

 

I'm also very aware that anytime my system does something I cant explain that's a virus, because my name brand Windows anti-virus enterprise that compiled a mac version of their windows product with a fraction of a percent of development they have for their windows version told me so and I know these products are not only necessary on mac but they protect my network PC's which are far too stupid with their own AV to protect themselves. It's not like Windows AV has had over two decades to mature, far more developers dedicated to Windows development and opportunities to works with Microsoft on integrating their products with Windows software.

 

I really dont like the idea of OS X being able to do most if not all of this without a 3rd party solution hanging over it's head at all times insuring compatibility regardless of knowing or not knowing what Apple may or may not have included in a securities patch since they choose to keep that information private. It's not like some potential exploiter could use that information to actually come up with a mac virus and try to distribute in the wild by knowing what methods Apple currently does not discuss with them or allow them access to, and I simply cant abide by the fact that OS X does not need any 3rd party utility to clean up the mess it doesn't make and something I downloaded from home shady site with packaged adware to test before I buy because the webpage told me I had a virus is causing the problem.

 

Again, this is all Apples mess to clean, I can't be troubled with actually researching the inherent problems with these 3rd party offerings by companies that change their name everytime they get slapped with a lawsuit.

Seriously Apple needs to step up to the plate and fix these other peoples problems now!

Mac Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12), Dual Xeon 2.4, 64 GB RAM
