With all the yelling on Reddit, I have to admit, I was a bit nervous to log in and take this update for a spin, but I was pleasantly surprised when I did so.
The machines really aren't overpowered (if anything they're underpowered) and are certainly not potent enough to take away in any destructive way from low level moneymaking methods. Additionally, the new devices are incredibly useful and have added a lot of quality of life to my gameplay. Thank you Jagex especially for the Gizmo bags, separators, teleportation compactors, portable fairy rings & spirit trees and so much more!
Makes the top 3 in updates of the year in my opinion behind AoD and Menaphos. Taling about actual updates, not tweaks.
As Tranq said also, hundreds of people saved their last ~10m xp for this update so it wouldn't be wasted by them already being 200m in the skill. As for me, it was far too late to make that decision :/ I already had 200m many months ago.
All in all, I'm quite pleased with this update.
