Six Reasons Why iOS 13 and Catalina Are So Buggy - TidBITS
That is a link to an interesting article from a former Apple developer. But before we get the usual crowd of "Apple isn't what it used to be under Jobs" commenters, I think that you could take out the name Apple and plug in just about any major developer--Google, Samsung, Microsoft, etc., and the story would be the same. I was in software development for 35 years and the pressure to get the release out, or as the article called it, "schedule chicken," is endemic to all of them. And whether or not you think it's gotten worse, the bottom line is that EVERY company pushes the boundaries. Read sometime about how Jobs pushed the iPhone initial release to the point where there was a host of folks behind the stage just praying that the iPhone in his hand would last through the demonstration because they KNEW it wasn't ready to go.
