So many options and yet they are all the same.
Bonus bug: Nothing happens if you click on the (Messages.app) notification. Clicking on any other notification opens the corresponding app as expected.

Trying to report a bug in Messages version 14, the latest and greatest one from Big Sir.
“Hey Siri, what’s my update?” is a new feature that should in theory give you a quick rundown of the weather, your calendar events and the news.
Asking Siri the question 5 times in a row results in:
Just the level of unpredictability we came to expect from Siri.
Speaking of text selection shortcuts, you know how on iOS you can select a word by double tapping it? Or apparently the first two words at once by double tapping on one of them when they are at the beginning of a sentence for some reason beyond my understanding.
Looks like Big Sur (I was suspecting Catalyst but it works fine in the Podcasts.app) is breaking default macOS shortcuts. In the official list, text selection shortcuts like the following are listed:
If you try to use them in the new Messages.app they don’t do anything. It’s working perfectly fine in the old Messages.app on Catalina.

If you are running macOS you also run a service called trustd which is verifying the signature of installed apps. This service is calling ocsp.apple.com which is currently down, possibly related to the (also not accessible) software update service.
Result: Apps take minutes to start, your Mac grinds to a halt with no indication what’s going on.
Workarounds proposed on Twitter include pointing ocsp.apple.com to localhost.
It just works!

This happens at least 50% of the time I’m opening a Twitter link inside Apollo, Basecamp, Reeder or any other app using an in-app browser. I don’t even know where to begin. For one thing, I even have your garbage app installed! Why are you still punishing me for trying to use your website? Why is there a “Try again” button that never works no matter how often I try, while refreshing the page via the in-app browser controls always works? Why is that button only there sometimes? Why are you showing me an error message about “my account” when I’m clearly not even logged in? Why are you telling me that something is not available to me when it – again – is always available after reloading via the in-app browser controls? Why do you hate your own users so much?
No adblockers, no VPN, nothing. Not that those would be acceptable excuses for this shitty behavior, but at least I could make sense of why it happens in a technical way then.
My Goodreads app has a “ghost” notification bubble. I’ve clicked through every single tab, section, menu in the app multiple times, checked the website too… nothing new/unread anywhere. Yet the red “1” sits on top of the icon. While looking for the reason, I stumbled upon this wonderful screen.
Why don’t you just refresh my user session yourself?! Isn’t that kinda what computers are for, doing things for us so we don’t have to? Have we now arrived at the state where “Did you try rebooting it?” is the solution to random things breaking inside an app?
Take a wild guess if any of the suggested solutions in that message solved that error, by the way. In the end, I reinstalled the entire app. The ghost notification was gone after that. Until I reopened the app. Sigh.
