Dozer VS hidden

It doesn't look like it solves the problem.

https://github.com/Mortennn/Dozer/issues/184

Dozer (free - open source), HiddenBar (free), free alternatives to bartender, however, only does 1 thing and that's hiding the icons, not adding an extra menu, nothing just icons here, icons gone.

If your menu bar is a little cluttered, Dozer is a nifty little tool to clean it up.

Dozer (Github)

Give Dozer a try. Its free, open source and does essentially the same thing AS Bartender. Using it for over a year now and have nothing to complain about https://github.com/Mortennn/Dozer

Dont buy Bartender.. download Dozer for free

Dozer

> * I discovered a free, native macOS solution that doesn't require installing Bartender or any other additional apps.*

> You can adjust the values from 0 to 6 to accommodate even more icons. Personally, I found 6 to be a good fit.

It's ultimately a really petty point - but this is not a fix. This increases the number of apps on the top bar before the problem occurs. Bartender (and hidden[1] - which I discovered in this thread) fix the problem. Calling a technique that delays the problem "a solution" after sneering at a project that actually is a solution just rubs me the wrong way.

There's Hidden Bar but I think it's a lot like Bartender. It has an arrow too if that's what you want.

Hidden is a great free and open-source alternative

Hidden Bar - hides menu bar icons

hidden bar is the best one from my experience and it’s open source!

Dozer (free - open source), HiddenBar (free), free alternatives to bartender, however, only does 1 thing and that's hiding the icons, not adding an extra menu, nothing just icons here, icons gone.

For apps that you never interact with that way, and won't let you turn their icons off, get HiddenBar.
