My own experience is different. \Years ago I would wait at least 6 months or more before doing a mac upgrade because of the inevitable problems. With Ventura I didn't even wait for the first point release, and had no problems whatsoever. (I did have two complete backups handy just in case.)

I'm not invaliding your experience, just mentioning that others have different experiences.

Same here. Traditionally, I always waited for the point one release before upgrading. This time with Ventura, for the first time I just updated to the point zero release and crossed my fingers. No problems, so I'm quite pleased.

This has been my experience as well. One of the first times I had zero issues with a major Mac OS upgrade.

I turned on auto updates and haven’t seen any problems since.

Seconded. I've never hesitated with an OS upgrade, and I've never experienced anything resembling a critical issue.
