   Taskbar for macOS vs uBar Comments

   Much better, updated to modern standards and closer to win 7 & 10 taskbar in terms of functionality.

   Positive comment by Guest · Sep 13, 2024

    boringBar

     Like

    The macOS Dock is built around apps, not windows. Multiple displays and desktops make it hard to track what's open where. boringBar keeps windows organized by desktop, with instant previews, one-click desktop switching, and pinned apps within reach.
