Do you like Liquid Glass on Mac?

This is quite a usability regression for a desktop OS meant to be used for getting things done.

It seems like productivity isn’t in the companies lexicon.

Whoever came up with that trend should be punished by pinapple on pizza for 24 months.

Great idea, yet this crew may love pineapple.

Like WTF? Who wants that!?

The fact they didn't kill this concept IN the design room shows a really ominous problem inside Apple.

Ominous is the word!

Just to again illustrate a bug/shortcoming (26—26.0.1), why would one Mac app window (Audio Midi Setup) be in dark mode while the others(and whole System) are in light mode? [Toggling, or setting to Light or Auto have no effect.] I'm sure it 'slipped by someone' but the point is that this shouldn't happen.

PS> is anyone seeing this in Audio Midi Setup on their Mac?

It would be like having car windows with little "micro holes in them" to allow some air and noise through even when the window is closed.

I am 100% certain that if Apple were to make a car with windows like this, droves of Apple fans would buy it and celebrate the revolutionary innovation.

@kkclstuff - Thx for posting that image.

I could pull examples from this one screenshot, ALL day.

This is HOT FRICKIN GARBAGE from Apple.

How funny…

Yet not funny and sadly quite true!

Reminds one of “Apple knows what’s best”

The current state of this OS is mind numbing.

It's called a cult for a reason. You see a similar condition with Tesla fans. Although now that Musk has turned into literal Hitler, I guess it has lessened a bit 🤪

I never liked rounded corners, but so far they didn't ever disturb me. In Tahoe and iPadOS 26 they have become so pronounced in some places that I find them distractingly ugly. They also waste space, which I don't appreciate.

I think I found a needle in a haystack.. I checked all the other apps in Utilities and even a restart, none show this anomaly—so a minor bug but no excuse for lack of diligence on 's part.


What irks me the most is, look at the shadow the dark window cast on the App's surrounding light windows. That messes with my (already poor) eyesight. Another example of what @thebart and I have been pointing out in other posts.

Buffoonery from Apple. Worse than the Apple Maps launch fiasco IMO.

I could defend technical bugs, but I can't defend Tahoe UI/UX.

Hell, I could defend Apple's Apple-knows-best attitude, if they were putting out the best UX/UI design. They aren't anymore.

This forum likes to dump on "user-made Linux themes" but in all honesty some third-party KDE themes are so much better than Tahoe.

Really? That's lame. We've only been able to click and drag since the Monitors Control Panel was introduced with the Mac II in something like System 3.

But iPhone users don't care about rearranging external displays, so it's not an important feature.
