When it boots back up, the very broken implementation of Dark Mode in macOS High Sierra will be enabled. Ready to try out the broken Dark Mode appearance in macOS High Sierra 10.13.x? Open the Terminal application, and enter the following defaults write command to enable Dark Mode in macOS High Sierra:ĭefaults write -g NSWindowDarkChocolate -bool TRUE While it’s just a defaults write command string that is easy to undo, if you happen to screw something up you’ll be happy you have a backup made to revert back to. It’s truly for the adventurous only.įor good measure you should backup your Mac before trying this out. It’s interesting to discuss and share, but it’s probably not a good idea to even bother trying yourself unless you’re the type of Mac user who likes to tinker and doesn’t mind breaking things. It’s important to emphasize just how incomplete this implementation is, so this is more for fun and for testing than actually trying to use at any level. But it does work, in a broken not quite working sort of way. Basically, it’s very broken, which is probably why Apple didn’t enable this as an option in macOS High Sierra in the first place and instead waited for the complete implementation in macOS Mojave (if you’re impatient and want a fully functioning Dark Mode, try the macOS Mojave public beta).

I have been using for about a week now and so far I can’t complain, no big bugs or anything like that so it’s stable to use in a working environment.To be perfectly clear, while this technically enables a Dark Mode-like appearance in macOS High Sierra, it doesn’t work that well, and it doesn’t look particularly good either there are mismatched colors everywhere, many user interface elements appear incomplete, many of the fonts aren’t colored correctly, and there are a variety of other very obvious visual issues with this. Today we will highlight the new macOS High Sierra theme by B00merang-Project. They(or him?) is also responsible for creating the underrated Windows 10 theme for Ubuntu that I think people really need to take a second look at, what is there not to like about it? Anyway, this macOS theme is high quality and it even comes complete with the icons, folders and the other necessary graphics that make it look almost exactly like the real life macOS theme! It’s quite a good job they did on this theme and I know a lot of you will love it. Hello everyone, how many of you love the macOS High Sierra theme? Don’t be shy, put your hands up! *Raises his hand* The theme is stunning and it does make some of us Linux lovers a bit envious if not borderline jealous but luckily, someone has ported the stunning High Sierra theme to work perfectly on your Ubuntu 18.04, 18.10, and 16.04 computer.
