macOS 26 Tahoe's Dead Canary Utility App Icons

Personally, I'm more dismayed by this change:

> Apps that haven’t been updated with Tahoe-compliant everything-fits-in-a-squircle icons are put in “squircle jail” — their non-Tahoe-compliant icons are shrunk and placed atop a drab gray Tahoe squircle background, to force them into squircle compliance.

I've been replacing some app icons with their older, non-square versions for years (Firefox is probably my favorite). Will be disappointing to lose that option -- I've never understood why Apple feels the need to standardize app icons like this.

that is unfortunate. icons having a variety of silhouettes makes it easier to identify them and gives things a little personality.

Adobe app icons are really the poster child for icons that are difficult to identify: https://as1.ftcdn.net/jpg/03/75/14/18/1000_F_375141824_Urr3G...

Icons were not meant to be text to read.

Take a look at the icons for Google’s mobile apps.
