Thinking about this again. Three words I kept repeating to myself: No red dot. No red dot. No red dot.
I cannot express how sick I am of red dots.

Looks like someone made an app that lets you set the special colors! Thanks, @inket!

This is the first I'm learning that System Settings sometimes has a special accent color only available to a Mac with a particular hardware colorway. (I'm boring and always buy silver devices, otherwise I think I would have noticed.)
I'm a bit annoyed that I didn't know to test with these colors. I test with all the other colors.

Announcing Dye! (no relation)
Set a different theme color for each one of your apps: make Finder red, and Photos blue, each one’s tint’s now up to you.
Dye is a free, tiny app, handwritten with care. And it’s open-source!

@atpfm I’m behind and just listening to #680. In the chapter “file-saving models”, John very briefly mentioned this system setting. I thought you might be interested in this other very surprising behavior related to that setting. Wish I had known sooner.
I think this is ready to test, but since this isn't a sandboxed app, I don't imagine there is any point in using TestFlight. It is notarized by Apple, however.
I am happy (?) to report that tabs in Xcode 26.3 are slightly less bad than they have been since 26.0. There are fewer situations that unintentionally create duplicate tabs of the same file (though still >0, which is still too many). Tab bar can now be scrolled instead of squishing every tab until they're unrecognizable.
Still not as good overall as Xcode 16, but it's progress. Good work, keep at it, folks.
