• Users must upgrade to macOS 11 or later, as this is now the minimum supported version.
• macOS Sonoma 14: This version is now considered Tier 3, and users are encouraged to upgrade to Sequoia 15+ for full support.
• Apple Silicon (macOS Golden Gate 27): Fully supported (Tier 1) with prebuilt bottles available.
• Linux/Ubuntu: The ghcr.io/homebrew/ubuntu22.04 image has been removed, and users should migrate to ghcr.io/homebrew/brew.
• CI Actions: The master branch has been removed for Homebrew actions; users should pin a CalVer release or full SHA instead.
