    It is really a great alternative to Bartender and others: simple, free, and straight to the point. I only wish there were an option to change the menu bar icon itself; nothing wrong with the current one, but I like to have options.

What is Dimble?

Dimble is a free, open source menu bar manager built for the menu bar Apple rebuilt in macOS 27. It hides the icons you don't need until you hover, click, or press a shortcut, then tucks them away again.

Icons live in three sections: Visible, Hidden, and Always Hidden. Arrange them in a layout editor with real icon previews, or hold Command (⌘) and drag an icon across the chevron in the bar itself. Hidden icons can also open in a panel under the menu bar, as tiles you can search and click. Per-display rules, hover and click reveal, keyboard shortcuts, and a setting for clicking the clock to open Notification Center.

Hiding is done by macOS itself, so icons don't jump when the bar reflows. Native Swift, notarized, available in ten languages.

Privacy: no account, no analytics, no server. The only connection it makes is checking for its own updates.

Distributed as a DMG and through Homebrew (brew install --cask fif7y/tap/dimble). GPLv3.
