Reviving an old thread here, but.
When it was called bugreport.apple.com, I was getting reponses from Apple Devs somwhat frequnty, even if just closed as dupes.
Now, with the Feedback Assistant, there's no luck if you are on a stable release at all. And I won't force myself onto beta releases without being a paid QA engineer for them.
Indeed a sad state for honest people wanting to report bugs and for the once legendary quality of software.
