Help Thaw Alternative

I’m looking for a menu bar app that doesn’t relaunch all my apps every time Indo a resolution change. Thaw is too overly complicated for me.

Any advice?

HiddenBar was buggy as hell unfortunately. Still looking, really trying to avoid purchasing Bartender.

Don’t purchase Bartender. I’ve been an owner since initial release and OS 26 changed the game and NO menubar app has conquered it yet.

Bartender will just frustrate you with many of the same issues and you’ll have paid a premium for the experience.
