A curated directory of 700 Mac menu bar apps
Not sure why the downvotes, same here. I disabled mine in favour of sketchy bar [0]. I hide most things except for bandwidth and clock. Super handy.

Completely remove menu bar
Like the title says, I'm trying to remove the menu bar completely. Not only 'hide it' through system settings, but to make sure it never pops up ever again. I'm working with sketchybar to create my own one and I never want to see it pop up again.
