Thanks for sharing this! The “Remove proxy icon hover delay” setting is the first thing I’ll try. Many times I use the proxy icon in Preview to move a pdf file… the delay introduced in Big Sur is extremely annoying.

Yes, the security implications of this information is the first thing that came to my mind while reading the site. At my current company, we received many phishing attempts trying to impersonate people from IT (including phone calls). Linke

MS lost the trial about IE and had to include a UI to allow switching the default[1] (1998-2001). Firefox v1 launched 3 yrs after that trial[2] (2004). The idea that Firefox was able to get market share besides MS anti-competitive actions i

I agree. I was answering to the parent comment of: “I'm still trying to grasp the real use of this”. This top-layer feature only solves the element at the bottom + positioning + z-index hack. I wish to have a sort of programmatic stac

It's a big problem. In fact I wish a better layer stack API instead of having a special top-layer for dialog. Problematic UI use cases: - z-index is a hint, the real layering depends on the positioning of the parent element. The usual

The idea reminds me to the game Sneaky Sasquatch (on Apple Arcade). In that game you (a Sasquatch) has to steal food from campers, resolve some mysteries, play mini games, build your place, and go to work disguised as human.
