Snow Leopard was so stable. I went months at a time without restarting or having major bugs. I wish we could get that reliability back.

Sierra has been an absolute rock for me.

My last reboot was due to an OS update.

I'm not sure I'd brag about a 15 day uptime.

I found I had to reboot Snow Leopard every 30-40 days, but running 3 web browsers with a ton of tabs open will do that.

Who's bragging?

This I don't get either. I've ran linux for years with in this order:

* slackware

* redhat

* debian

All were on home-built PCs that had no special insight into them, and were very much not top of the range. They have been media servers and a desktop, on 24x7. None had stability issues, ever.
