Hi MacBed! So far I have not updated to macOS Big Sur yet. Have you tested some of the apps from your website within the macOS Big Sur? Do those apps work fine? It is everything working well as if you used Catalina macOS? Any suggestion for a firewall for macOS Big Sur (hands off, little snitch, lulu…)? Thank you for your comments. Have a nice day.
