Should you missed my earlier publish on the subject, the primary model of Tahoe had the darkish blue on the fitting facet of the Finder icon, which was felony.

I do know some people (cough, cough, John Siracusa, cough) need Apple to go even additional and make the lighter coloration on the fitting lengthen all the way in which to the sides of the the icon, which might look one thing like this very tough mockup I did in only a few minutes:

I can perceive that, and the need for the road between the 2 halves of the icon to be extra rounded as it’s in macOS Sequoia. Nonetheless, Apple’s present Finder icon works effectively for me, and it matches in properly with the remainder of the Dock on my Tahoe check machine:

Apple heard my suggestions because it echoed across the Apple world and acted upon it, and I’m grateful for that. I’m going to rely this as a win for the Mac, for running a blog, and for myself personally. That authentic weblog publish is the most-read factor on 512 Pixels in years. It clearly hit a nerve with loads of people, together with folks inside Apple.

Mission achieved.
