You mean you can turn Windows 7 Aero off? I haven’t found a way to turn glass off on MacOS. There’s settings that seem like they would turn it off, but they don’t.
You can turn glass off in macOS. On my MacBook running the latest 26.4.1 it’s in the System Settings under Accessibility -> Display -> Reduce transparency.
Sadly, there are still a few apps that don’t respect Accessibility settings, like Tidal, but it should apply to everything that’s part of macOS.
Yes, that’s what I did. The very OS doesn’t respect it. Not for nothing did they call it “reduce” and not “eliminate”. It looks like shit. I have refused upgrading my other Mac to the latest OS version due to this.
Oh shit, I take that back, either they added that toggle after the initial release or I failed to find it at the time. I had it off, turned it on and I have a reasonable UI again! 🙏

That’s weird, it completely kills it for me… I’ll have a look later to see if I ticked any other boxes.
