I should post that I do like macOS Ventura.
It fixed the way Photos didn’t work (wouldn’t read the date from my camera). It probably didn’t fix Podcasts but I don’t care as I found a better solution (https://podcasttomp3.com/).
It didn’t break anything. Except GIMP 3. Luckily I retained GIMP 2.10.
I like the controversial System Settings redesign, it reminds me of GNOME.
You might ask why I want to use old stuff like Ventura. No need for the bleeding edge and removes points of failure.
Probably next year Chrome will drop Ventura, and then I’ll go through the same thing of getting the installer for Sonoma.
