Crashing on macOS 15
in progress

I don't know where I am more sorry about, upgrading to MacOS 15 or the delay for any update on this issue. Since I have done the MacOS upgrade, I think an update from Mindmac development team becomes crucial. Last update request was 30th of October, now we are in December. So please, give us something of good news regarding this bug for under the christmas tree.

Any ETA updates? I MISS MINDMAC!

Temporary workaround: try disabling the built-in firewall. There's some sort of bug with that firewall that's causing all sorts of network issues in macOS 15 - from random corruption of packets to failed SSL tunnels to complete lack of connection.
This is obviously not ideal, and not recommended on a public network. But it fixed the MindMac issue for me as well as an issue with my VPN. If you need to use MindMac on a public network, recommend installing a third-party firewall or going through a separate device.
Not sure if there's anything that the MindMac devs will be able to do about this if this is the root cause.
You can disable the firewall here:
Settings => Network => Firewall

Still crashes for me, even with Firewall off.

MindMac Really glad to hear it 🙏

Is there a progress report on an update? A better workaround instead of turning off firewall?

Linas Vytuvis I can't understand why they are so slow to fix a bug that could make the app nearly unusable. I'm currently testing boltAI and it seems to be bug free so far. However I'm hoping to not have to switch to it as boltAI doesn't offer much customization options with the AI model

I broke down and spent the $80 for the BoltAI premium permanent license. It looks OK. Better than being dead in the water for so long.

I am getting UPSET at the lack of responsiveness from the developer. I will need to switch to another app because I am dependent on this app for daily work.

Same issue. I can barely use mindmac normally. Thinking of moving to another app

It's impossible to use it on Sonoma.

Same issue. It’s become unusable.

I have the same issue. One prompt and after that it crashes.
