[–] refalo@programming.dev 13 points 1 year ago (4 children) macOS 26? I thought the last version was 15... permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Scoopta@programming.dev 15 points 1 year ago* (3 children) Looks like they're jumping from 15 to 26, in fact they're doing the same thing for iOS, jumping from 18 to 26 for the next release. Looks like they're synchronizing all their OS version numbers using the year they'll be primarily used(i.e. 2026) from what I can find. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* This is my preferred versioning format for user-facing software, by far. I feel like Semver should also adopt the date inclusion, like 7.4.2-202606 or even 7.4.202606 — you can even extended it to multiple daily releases like 7.4.20260610.1233 There's too much software to mentally track when each version was released. You should be able to tell at a glance. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) I'm not an apple person, so even I saw news about iOS I thought "how the fuck are they on 26 already?" I didn't really care, but I appreciate the explanation. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Scoopta@programming.dev 1 point 1 year ago Tbh I'm not an apple person either.
