[Feature Request] Change menubar tint depending on light/dark mode. #27

Basically, I wish we had the ability to set dark tint while the MacBook is in dark mode, and remove tint when it's in light mode.

Why this is important? Because nowadays we have a lot of dynamic wallpaper and in daytime menubar often looks too bright for dark mode. There was an app that modified the menubar to look like older macOS versions, but that feature would fit this app really well.

Assuming that by adjusting the tint, you mean changing the menu bar's color entirely, the only way to do it is, unfortunately by changing the desktop wallpaper itself to a static image with, say, a black bar at the top where the menu bar would be. So basically, it would replace dynamic wallpapers with non-dynamic ones. Early on in development, I wanted to do this, but that's what stopped me.
