The major version 3 was just recently released: https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/maint/NEWS

Blog post author here. Nice find.

I just updated to 3.x (my screenshots were based on 2.x) and 3.x's UI is a pretty substantial improvement. Reports generate faster, fonts look better and the app itself doesn't look like it was made in 2003. This is coming from a Windows 10 perspective.

Thanks for mentioning this! I was a GC user for quite a while on linux, but the register rendering (fonts) was so bad on macOS I abandoned it, checking back for updates every so often. Looks like this is better now.

GnuCash 3.0 is available via homebrew cask:

FWIW: I just tried the 3.0-1 macOS version and it crashed when trying to configure/save. The save dialog was non-native and seemed to have some weird "offset" where clicking the mouse would select a folder/file not under my cursor, but offset by like 50px.
