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