So, I now have Catalina on my secondary device. First use of DT3 shows no serious problems (I have noted “flashing” of the screen when closing multiple databases with DT in fullscreen), I will report back if that changes with more intensive use. Catalina (fresh install) still seems pretty buggy to me - apps have failed to appear in launchpad, apps in the “other” folder in launchpad have spontaneously escaped the folder and distributed themselves across my 3 launchpad pages, the info-window regarding privacy has appeared multiple times when opening calendar, sparsebundles opened by DT and later closed by DT are still not ejected properly (see this thread: Volume unmounts, sparse bundle image does not eject (DT 3 beta1)), thunderbolt links between devices are slower than previously due to recurring pauses and only worked following multiple restarts, disconnecting servers doesn’t seem to necessarily disconnect, leaving the connect button dead, icons in the dock (eg the download folder) get spontaneously replaced by ?, and all in all the OS appears less responsive than Mojave (eg first time clicking on “Desktop & Screensaver” in System Preferences does nothing for a good second, almost 2). I might hold off installing on my primary device for a while…
