Yes, I typically used an older system that is just used as a media hub for my TV for doing the testing. I have used beta builds on my main systems in the past, when pre-GM builds were basically trouble free, but that has been increasing not the case over the last few years (10.14 betas were very stable in contrast to a few others). These days other than security updates I find few compelling reasons to keep up to date with what Apple is doing, I find most of the UI changes irritating, pointless and just slowing down my workflow. I‘ve been holding off on iOS updates this time around for the same reason. Guess I’m getting old or something.
