Earlier quoted context omitted.
Can you post screenshots of what you mean? I see grossly rounded corners in some apps, but I don't see the other stuff like gaps in window corners for full screen apps. I may have some config bit flipped that has disabled those. Yeah, the new corner radius is ugly but by and large, it's not much different than before, from what I see so far.

If you draw your own window frame, you're gonna have to update for every OS release.
I believe though that apps which have not been recompiled for macOS 26 operate in a legacy mode, and that includes the older window corner radius.
