How so? Are they going to push full screen apps up to the bottom of the notch? If not, how are you sure it won’t have any impact on so many different apps?
The menubar disappears when you’re in a full screen app, so that won’t help.
I’ve used full screen only for essentially every app daily for the past 10 years on Mac, curious to see how this works out.

- jvzr 5y agoThe screen is apparently a 16:10 display, plus approximately 70 (not sure about the number) pixels on top: thusly, when an app goes fullscreen, the OS just blacks out those top pixels and puts the app in the 16:10 area (unless it uses the new API and requests access to these pixels)
