Using the latest Hype Pro 4.1.19 on a 15 year old iMac 27” running High Sierra 10.3.6 with no issues. Great job preserving the version. The Os is nearing 8 years - keep it up Tumult.
Glad to hear that, thanks for the positive report .
It is usually much harder supporting the current/newer OSes than older ones .
I thought quite the opposite, in my mind it’s just Apple telling the devs, hey you want your apps to be in the App Store and support the latest Os? Follow these guidelines… and Apple dictates metal support for all dev being the case, the devs actually stop supporting the old hardware which has no metal performance. This is the case with most apps nowadays. Apple almost enforces this metal performance in all apps (wether it’s required or not from apps devs perspective) at least for Intel which is going to be history in a couple of months as Apple stops providing macOS versions and closing one big chapter in apples history of year to year updates. Silicon soldered unified crap is the future I guess.
That so true, I have an app I wrote which included legacy code, back in 2008 and only ever updated in 2010. It still runs on Mac OS 15. ( actually can't update it anyway, as it was my first lesson of why you not leave on an old Mac and should keep them up to date in between Os and Xcode changes )
Which in most cases is good for the end user experience, which at the end of the day is the most important thing. But as a end user myself, I do suspect marketing also comes into it with some things.
The End User part is conditional
It is absolutely true apple makes it a PITA with developer tools/technologies dropping support for older OSes, but in the grand scheme of things the bugs in newer OSes are more of a pain .
