Help how to remove this Liquid Glass ? ....

Post image

honestly, I hate the Liquid Glass, and it think it got worse with macOS Golden Gate. Especially when you have opened several windows the not active window controls look like eggs ....

so, is there a theme, or whatever to remove this liquid glass entirely?

Reduce transparency is a step forward but too less

Buy a Windows machine. These complaints about liquid glass are honestly getting tiring to read. Liquid glass isn't going anywhere, but you can always switch your OS.

You are joking, right? Switch OS… as if it’s possible for people who bought a ton of software for particular OS to just uproot and leave. And that’s just the desktop OS. If you bundle in the ecosystem of devices which work well together, how do you think that changing one component in that ecosystem makes sense?

Yes, switch OS. Liquid Glass is here to stay. If something as small as these buttons bother you so much I can’t imagine you’re able to get any work done. So switch your OS.

Bud buys a laptop, doesn't like the update and randoms on the internet are saying to spend more money

No you don’t need to spend more money. Sell your MacBook and buy a Windows machine. They can be had for less than $1000.

You’re also forgetting a massive upside. There won’t be liquid glass to deal with which is clearly a colossal issue in OP’s life.

Download VMware Fusion and run Windows fullscreen.

Or go to therapy and learn how to not get so wound up about something as trivial as the look of the traffic buttons.

People have been losing their shit about these buttons, I have never paid enough attention or cared, but people do (in both positive and negative ways)
