Right now the control center for me is just this annoying icon I never look at/touch and can't disable, much like Docker Desktop's. So it just adds to the problem. Now that you mention it, in concept it seems appropriate for widgets I want ready access to but don't need to see all the time. But... * there aren't that many things that fall into that category. I want to see at least my CPU graph, memory usage, network status (bandwidth, default route: wired vs wireless vs missing), datetime without any clicks. * it doesn't seem as customizable as I'd want, e.g. I don't need a "Now Playing" thing that shows Apple Music. I never use Apple Music. * isn't it redundant with the widgets that pop up when I click the date? I think that's the notification center, though I don't know why there are widgets like calendar and news in there. * third-party stuff doesn't seem to use it. I suspect they can't or haven't bothered because of issues similar to those above, but I haven't looked into it.
