Again Apple showed them how to do this reliable and with no configuration effort on the participating machines. It is justified they named it "zeroconf"...

Yeah, fully agree, browsing SAMBA server is a big mystery, never worked reliable for me. And now, SMB1 protocol has been dropped, that's producing additional chaos ....
