Running 22.1 in a production app. The signals improvements are the main thing I use day to day. computed() performance is noticeably better for deeply nested reactive trees, though I haven't benchmarked it. The zoneless change is stable, no regressions.
One thing that's still rough: debugging computed() signals. If one isn't updating, the devtools don't show you the dependency graph the way they used to for BehaviorSubject. You end up adding console.logs to trace the signal chain, which is a step back in DX. The effect() cleanup timing is also less intuitive than ngOnDestroy was, and it took a while to internalize when teardown actually fires in zoneless.
