I don't know if I just need to resinstall macOS 15 or if its part of a larger issue. I've used my MBP since Ventura with really no issues. Compared to being on Windows its been very painless.

However since upgrading to Sequoia, my experience has been absolutely horrible. From applications loading then going non-responsive with an invisible window to Spotlight search absolutely shitting itself and locking up the laptop for minutes at a time, I've gone from enjoying my MBP to coming very very close to throwing Asahi on it and calling it a day.

Has anyone else had major issues with macOS 15?

I'm with you, last time an update was this rough for me was like 6+ years ago. That last rough experience had me avoiding major updates until at least 6 months after launch, the only reason I updated was some shitty policy change my corporate IT implemented that wouldn't stop popping up about it.

If you haven't already, force a full rebuild of your spotlight index, https://support.apple.com/en-us/102321 . The only other advice aside from rollback or reinstall is to create a new user profile.
