MacOS 10.14 - Mojave

Initially I upgraded my High Sierra installation to Mojave but I was getting some performance issues (which were there with High Sierra as well). I messed around with my partitions way to much so I suspect that was the cause (re-sizing bootcamp and my Mac partition a bunch). I nuked the whole SSD and re-installed a fresh copy of Mojave and it runs very smoothly now.

Even the boot ROM upgrade required on my old Mac Pro was possible with my non-EFI (no boot screen) GPU - Sapphire AMD Radeon RX580 Pulse - as Apple actually class it as supported.
Will no doubt get to testing some games eventually but the day to day stuff appears to be working so far - even some old apps and hardware drivers long since left behind by the developers.
The big one is definitely going to be 10.15 and leaving behind all the 32-bit software but we will see what happens by then.
There could be the mythical return of an expandable Mac Pro (2019?) to upgrade to or, whatever hardware arrives could be just well out of reach with the pricing like iMac Pro.

When there's a multiplayer version, I'm going to be on Frost's team. Well, except he doesn't seem to actually need a team...I mean, what's the point? "Hey look, it's Frost and His Merry Gang of Useless Hangers-On!" Or something.

My biggest issue at the moment is that I was forcefully updated to iTunes 12.9, which lacks the iOS App Store and iOS app management, and there's no way back to iTunes 12.6.5.

I deleted my High Sierra partition a month ago, or I would have updated that and checked for myself. I need to check updating to Sierra thou.

In addition, there are a bunch of (small) changes that I'm not really happy about. For instance, you can no longer set after which period of inactivity your computer goes to sleep, and Apple has decided to replace the nice and tidily organised printer options in all their own applications with an unsorted and messy list of dropdown menus, which in part is unlocalised in German (at least for Canon printers). And before you ask: this is not related to the drivers. All third party applications still have the old printer options.

Uhh.... what?
Those options are still there for me. Computer is set to sleep after 1hr, and the display goes to sleep after 15 minutes.
