I think Vista is a bit strong, I seem to have been relatively lucky with Catalina so far.
After a couple of days fiddling, and courtesy of updated printer drivers from Canon, I only have one outstanding issue left - when I print onto the surface of a disc it misses it completely and prints on the tray!! I suppose it would be easier to just write on the disc.
Maybe a bit strong, but it's easily their weakest release since Lion. It's been largely smooth for me, though the nags get old after a while, even if I understand why they exist. I wish I could just dial back the security a little myself. My only other main issue for me is the undetectable "Relocated" folder. There's a symlink in it that I can't trash because macOS has it flagged as required by the system (brought up in another thread). The hoops I will have to jump through to actually get rid of it is just inexcusable. I also had to re-add much of the music track artwork in my wife's user account. I didn't need to for myself, but did for her. This in particular is a widespread problem for others.
There are just so many issues other people are reporting, though much of it is growing pains (loss of 32-bit support, which I get sucks for some people, but that's progress). On the other hand, someone here did a nuke and pave, but when migrating their user data over, it got jumbled. Something this critical is inexcusable. I just had to buy a new MacBook Air (literally just an hour ago) due to what now appears to be an unresolvable hardware or firmware issue I developed right before Catalina came out that is getting worse, and I will have no choice but to manually migrate bits and pieces over to the new MBA. "Just works", my eye.
