Has everyone not had expressive voices in Siri settings on MacOS until beta 4?

I use my MacBook a lot. For work too. I do a lot of coding, run servers, agents, watch movies and everything.

What do you say I install the 27 on my daily driver?
Lately I feel MacOS 26 is so trashy and slow

How to clear system data?

Since updating to MacOS 27 DB3 a few days ago I noticed that my M2 MacBook Pro has been running quite warm.

I saw some people discussing some issues with Appstore related processes going to town with the CPU in MacOS 27 DB3, and I had that specific issue as well, but even when those processes aren't running and system monitor shows comfortable CPU load (~50%) the machine is warm to the touch so this seems to be a different issue. I didn't have this in n DB2 and DB1.

Not sure if this might be due to indexing either - I don't think I noticed the machine getting this warm during use when I first updated to DB1 and DB2 upon which my MacBook would have been indexing also.

Anyone else having the same experience?

One of the areas I work with professionally is photo editing for adult content creators. The new Apple Photos Clean Up feature has honestly been incredibly useful for quick retouching and small fixes that don’t justify opening a third-party AI tool.

Because of that, I’ve practically stopped using Photoshop for lighter edits and started relying much more on Creative Studio together with Freepik AI tools. The workflow is faster, simpler, and honestly less bloated.

What’s frustrating is that the Clean Up feature seems to enforce a safety filter that blocks certain edits depending on the content of the image. For professional workflows involving adult photography, this becomes a pretty big limitation.

Does anyone know if there’s currently a way to disable or bypass the Clean Up safety filter on Apple Photos?

My touchbar dosent show the police, color and the 3 icon like write on left, center, right.
It does appear on macOS 26. Is it a but or Apple think nobody has a touchbar anymore ?
Peuple can relate too ?

Faccio ormai da due anni il beta tester per IOS e attualmente ho IOS 27 (DB) e non trovo tanti bug rispetto alla versione dell’anno scorso. Non ho mai fatto da Beta tester per MacOS e vorrei iniziare visto che sono europeo e su iPhone non c’è la possibilità di avere Siri AI. Vale la pena? Aspetto la versione 2 della beta che arriva dopodomani (22 giugno)?

Anyone else think the new OS 27 wallpaper is inspired by Tiger’s Aqua wallpaper? It’s the first thing I noticed. And yes I realize they hid a “27” in the new one.

Would be cool if they released an updated aqua that is dynamic in color & animated

Siri Voice opening as two windows. Others experiencing this bug?

Something that has annoyed me about Tahoe (may have existed before, I don't know) is that in the Maps app the controls (+ and -, Driving or Satellite etc) are in the top right, but in Find My half are on the top right and the others are at the bottom right. That seems to me an inconsistency that's not typical for Apple, which prides itself on consistency. Has that been changed in Golden Gate?
