A comment on macOS Monterey.

I'm not sure I need yet another macOS version, feels like they've opted for a more frequent release cycle. I (genuinely) wonder why...

They've been released pretty close to every 11-13 months since 10.7, which was nearly 2 years after 10.6. That happened a decade ago now, so it's not something that's changed recently.

Oh man, I should have looked this up before commenting. Really feels shorter, but yeah the data is right there.

Their OS releases have been yearly for about the past decade I think.
