A reminder, if you dislike the liquid glass look, that going into System settings / Accessibility / Display and toggling “Increase contrast” gets you a properly nice design with actual borders and solid backgrounds. 100% recommended.

- robin_reala 1y agoIf you use the societal modal of disability as your lens on liquid glass you can see that it’s not you with a disability, it’s Apple disabling your ability to use the system with their design choices.
- buraktamturk 1y agoThis settings turns reduce transparency and it turns makes the menu bar gray, which looks horrible on a display on notch. Is there any way to make it black? Like it appears on full screen applications? (apart from enabling the transparency together with a black wallpaper) Currently even on dark mode it doesn't have a black background while reduce transparency is toggled on.
- nsagent 1y agoI initially tried that and thought it improved some things, but it increased contrast across the OS, such that some webpages, including stock HN became too blinding. I instead switched to "Reduce Transparency," but that has its own issues. Overall not pleased. I really did not want to care about the UI changes at all. But having experienced it now, I'm so annoyed I upgraded to iOS 26 and I'm having trouble focusing on the screen. I want WebGPU support, but I'm very hesitant to upgrade to macOS 26 (which is required for WebGPU in Safari).
