    I’m in the exact same boat looking for a replacement for my macbook pro M1 that had a screen failure. Was looking at the MB air with a 15" screen and the best performance possible for photo/illustrative design purposes. Not happy with the screen on the MBA but portability is also a thing I miss.

    I may be wrong but didn’t Apple introduced a specific Liquid Glass section under System Settings > Appearance, allowing users to switch from the default “Clear” mode to a “Tinted” mode.

    Another way is within the Accessibility pane. By navigating to System Settings > Accessibility > Display and enabling Reduce Transparency.

    Also I hear that the app OnyX, the version designed for macOS Tahoe, includes a dedicated toggle to disable Liquid Glass elements that may persist even after reducing transparency.

    Personally I don’t expect that apple will stoically force this on us without toggles to tweak it in the future, due to user pushback on liquid glass, I’d expect there to be workarounds in Tahoe and future os rollouts.
