Random network disconnects on macOS Sequoia

macOS Sequoia 15.0 seems to have random network connectivity issues causing various apps to randomly disconnect.

Some people advise disabling network extensions (the only one I had is Little Snitch), completely turning off the system firewall (System Settings > Network > Firewall) fixes the issue on my 2019 Intel iMac.

Strangely, I have a M1 MacBook Pro which works fine even with firewall and stealth mode enabled, who knows 🤷
