macOS 11 Big Sur does many things right and after a bit of getting used to, the visual style really grows on you. The transparent menu bar, however, is a bit of a legibility nightmare and something I could not live with. So I developed Boring Old Menu Bar to bring the "perfectly fine" macOS Catalina menu bar to macOS 11 Big Sur and later.
Different Colors
The Catalina menu bar is perfectly fine, but white looks better in the light mode.. and while I'm at it why not add more options?
Rounded Corners
Should Apple have gone for rounded screen corners to complete the iPad-esque look? Judge yourself.
