I just run my Internet connected Mac with the defaults and I have no problems with timing on FT8. I use the "Apple Americas/U.S. (time.apple.com)" NTP server which works fine. I don't go through any of the unlock reenter stuff. I just use it as Apple delivered it. If I go to Europe or Asia it's probably worth selecting the local NTP server.

I run a Mac here. Go to System Preferences, Unlock, enter “us.pool.ntp.org <http://us.pool.ntp.org/>”, Lock and you will be good to go. You should Unlock, delete, and renter the above daily to make sure you are synched - takes 30 seconds.

Before I get into the list of problems I’m having using WSJT-X FT8 on my K3S, 
I’d like to know:

1. Is the automatic clock setting in my Mac mini (running Sierra, 10.12) good 
enough for modes like
JT65 and FT8?

2. If not, what’s a good reliable time sync app I can download and use?
