Soduto VS hidden

Thanks for sharing! Looks like there is now a more active fork at https://github.com/sannidhyaroy/Soduto

my Mac client recc: Soduto (https://github.com/sannidhyaroy/Soduto). Clipboard, notification, messages, file browsing/transfer, etc. all integrated very well

Soduto is great as for now, although it's not been updated in years so some features are broken. I do have a forked build of Soduto on my GitHub Repo which runs natively on Apple Silicon and I tried fixing all the deprecated and dead code. You can get the latest version of it from here.

Soduto (awesome app for getting ecosystem features between your android and mac/the official version is outdated so, you can try the forked version from my GitHub Repository)

> 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.
