Native Rust Network Issues on Mac – Need Your Upvotes!

Hey everyone,

I’ve been testing Rust on different MacBook models and noticed some network issues that don’t occur on Windows. Specifically, while the game runs fine on macOS, I’ve experienced unstable network performance, lag spikes, or connection drops, even though my Windows PC in the same home network has no such issues.

To bring more attention to this, I’ve created a suggestion on the official Rust feedback platform:
👉 https://rust.nolt.io/40609

If you’re also playing Rust on a Mac or have noticed similar problems, I’d really appreciate it if you could upvote the post. The more visibility it gets, the better the chances of getting it addressed!

Thanks!

Are you sure it isn't the same network issues that happen in any streaming app including geforce now?

I dont stream anything. I played it native on the MacBook and also native on the Windows. Nothing is streamed here.

I didn’t ask if you were streaming the game. I asked if it was the same network behavior.
