Regarding testing, there were already questions how to setup a testing client aside of the normal client:

Hi,

you can continue with your existing setup. VFS on-demand will only benefit for new folders then. so your setup will remain. there is no feature (yet) to clean up all local VFS enumerations. a new sync folder setup would do this

First of all thank a lot for ou work regarding the client for MacOS.

I currently the v33 RC3 with MacOS 26.4 beta 4 and it is really hard to read any text in the setting box. There are boxes wit different grey tones in the background and white text in it (see screenshot). I would suggest to use dark grey or black text color so you are able to read the text in this boxes.

please let me know if you need further information.
