It has some small but important changes; see https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/wiki/Client-release-notes

As usual, please report test results (including positive results) here:
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/alpha/test_form.php

We already made the MacOS 8.2.5 version Recommended, because it has some critical fixes.
But feel free to test on Mac also.
BTW: Docker/Podman isn't quite working on Mac yet.
BOINC detects Podman OK but jobs fail.
We hope to have this fixed soon; it's probably an issue with the apps rather than the client.
