I just upgraded my Mac and holy cow, is the new System Settings app buggy... and it's also fixed-width for whatever reason.

Also, it seems to think - for a few moments after every restart - that my Wifi connection is to a hidden network, when it actually isn't. Welp.

System Preferences was always fixed-width; it's Windows's Settings app that's not.

Yes, but I was expecting the new one to have a responsive design. Wasn't it rewritten from scratch using iOS-like tech or something?

Don't know how if it was rewritten; but it's no longer fixed-height, which is IMO what matters when dealing with long lists.
