Can the spacing of menu bar apps be modified in Big Sur? It's much too wide, which is a problem if you use a lot of menu bar apps.
Actually, there appears to be some way to do this, since the newest version of Bartender allows you to change or remove spacing in the menu bar. The app is free in beta (and, accordingly, still has a few wrinkles still to be ironed out) and will cost $15 once the final version is released.
To change the spacing with Bartender, install the app, open the preferences window, and under &quot;General&quot; change &quot;Menu bar item spacing&quot; to &quot;Small Spacing.&quot; After logging out and back in (or, if that doesn’t work, rebooting), the changes should take effect.
