A bit of self-promotion here, but coming from Windows/Linux land I got used to having the taskbar at the bottom and never really liked the Dock. I love my Mac, and I know folks who…

Thanks! I'll be hanging around this thread for a few more hours. Let me know if there's any feature you need or any bug you encounter.

I reckon peeking into the individual iTerm/Brave/Chrome tabs would not be possible without disabling SIP. I need to research this a bit though.

1. Support for themes will probably not happen in the near future. I want to keep this as simple as possible. 2. Sure, I'll experiment with the Messages app to reproduce this. Than…

OP here - I think I need to focus more on accessibility features in the next few releases. Could you please post a screenshot of how boringBar looks to you right now?

Hey, thanks for purchasing it! I'll take a look into the app launcher issues that you are pointing out. The drag and drop feature will be implemented later this week in the bar win…

I'm able to reproduce the cmd+a issue. Will fix it in the next update. Thanks for letting me know. The hitbox part is being requested a lot. It'll be a part of the next update too.…

Clicking on the chip and not having the window come to the foreground is a fairly weird issue. Do you have anything else installed that uses Accessibility permissions? On the other…

Hey! Thanks for checking it out. Regarding your feedback: - This has been said by another user as well. I am on a 4K monitor - if possible could you share a screenshot of how it lo…

I think that's fair. My use case is fairly simple: I usually have multiple VS Code windows open at the same time and I have a habit of moving windows related to a certain task to a…

I tried Sidebar, uBar - all of them. All of them have the same set of issues that they don't take care of windows that are being maximized (they end up behind the bar) and they hav…

Hey. OP here - which part of boringBar did you find slow? Is it the time it takes to hover on a window to show its thumbnail? Or is it something else you think needs improvement?

Technically it should - I tried using Amethyst with it for a few weeks before launch and it seemed to work fine for me.

Wow okay - I thought the large option was already quite large. Will experiment with an extra large option in some time and push out an update if it appears stable.

It does! That's the USP here - it's present on all spaces and it only shows windows on that space. If you have multiple displays and have the "Displays have separate spaces" option…

That feature is under development. Right now the windows are arranged based on which app was launched first.

I have some existing issues with uBar that I have listed here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47746812 . All in all it does not seem like a polished app to me. I tried using…

- I cannot seem to find Mbar on stacksocial. Do you have a link for that? - Sidebar looks like a decent app but on a cursory look it does not seem to take care of window overlappin…

OP here - for boringBar you can use the same license for your new machine. It would not be an issue. Keep in mind though boringBar on your previously activated device will stop wor…

OP here - much appreciated. Is there something that you didn't like about boringBar? Is there any missing feature you would like to see implemented or is it that it doesn't fit wel…

Hey - thanks for testing it out. Have you found any issues as of yet that I need to look into?

Apps like these unfortunately cannot be put on the App Store as they use some Window Server shenanigans to make it work. boringBar is notarized by Apple and will work well with Gat…

I've already used these apps and they did not serve my purpose well. - I forced myself to use uBar but it has another level of jank that doesn't sit right with me - it is not relia…

Thanks for actually using the app. Appreciate it! I concur with the uBar issue - its jank was the main reason I built this app. I didn't want to add the logout/restart/shutdown opt…

I get it now that folks absolutely loathe the idea of subscriptions - that too for a taskbar. In hindsight I too find it hideous but I wanted the pricing to reflect the effort that…
