Okay, after my first few hours of using MacOS Tahoe, I concede that it’s not as bad as I was expecting. The rounded corners are… tollerable. They do make the title bars are little large for my liking, but most apps put controls there anyway, so it tends to balance out. I even like the transparent menu bar.

I did have to seek out the icon-laced menus. Most of the apps I typically used — those not from Apple — are pretty restraint in their choice about which menu items get icons. Zed does pretty well in finding a good balance. Vivaldi has very little, outside those that come from the system. But the Finder? Yeah, maybe dial it back a little next time, Apple.

I’m not in a rush to upgrade my personal system just yet, but I think I can live with Tahoe.
