Stage manager and liquid glass were 2nbig flops. Stage manager because it’s unusable and adds clutter to the screen and liquid glass because it makes an m1 ipad pro feel like a 2010 device
I updated from iOS 18 a few days ago to 26 because Claude design needs newer web apis. I m shocked how bad the „windows“ experience is on iPads now. I had no idea.
Fortunately, I found that there is now a way to reduce the stupid corner radius ("defaults write -g NSConvolutionOverride1 -float 8") and to remove the floating sidebars ("defaults write -g NSSplitViewItemSidebarDefaultsToFloatingAppearance -bool false").
It’s just yet another way to manage windows. It’s fully optional, I never even remember it exists. It was introduced in iPadOS 16 / macOS 13.
