    Props to the developers for reviving the Ice app with Thaw, but sadly it's pretty buggy for me and updates are becoming more scarce again.

What is Thaw?

Thaw is a powerful menu bar management tool. While its primary function is hiding and showing menu bar items, it aims to cover a wide variety of additional features to make it one of the most versatile menu bar tools available.

Note : Thaw is a fork of Ice by Jordan Baird. As the original project appears to be inactive, Thaw aims to keep the project alive fixing bugs, ensuring compatibility with the latest macOS releases, and eventually implementing the remaining roadmap features.
