How often does your Mac reboot for no obvious reason

Reading these responses I’m increasingly convinced it’s a third-party software issue.

I haven’t counted, and this is far from my area, but it seems like we’ve had Intel and Mx Mac owners saying they’ve had this happen anywhere from not at all to pretty frequently.

Additional observations

  • seems reboot happens more during idle time
  • may be related to external hardware (such as USB hubs)

Idle time fits for me, but not external hardware. I don’t use any.

Never.

If your device is restarting for no apparent reason, something is wrong.
