Hey - thanks for the update.

I am personally running on macOS 15 now, but do you know if the new approach will be backwards compatible?

If we are not sure - it would be safer to check for the macOS version and support both commands depending on the macOS version:

Something like:

macos_major_version=$(sw_vers -productVersion | cut -d '.' -f 1)

if [ "$macos_major_version" -lt 15 ]; then
  # macOS below 15
else
  # macOS 15 or above
fi
