I've never understood why apps get the final say on what goes in my menubar in macOS. Skype says I need a menubar icon; I say I don't. Why does Skype's opinion trump mine?
- ativzzz 5y agoBecause the Apple software product model isn't built to be customizable by the end user.
- leppr 5y agoI don't understand how you can be surprised at a lack of customization options on an Apple OS. It's literally one of their selling points.
- JadeNB 5y agoYes, exactly—Apple decides what's best for me. I know they'll fiddle with my menubar as they please. But it's very much outside their usual mode of operations to let random other apps decide what's best for me.
- EricE 5y agoIt would be nice if it were built into the OS, but especially when I had smaller screens on a laptop I found Bartender an invaluable application.
