That wasn't the standard on the Mac, and looks like it still isn't. That platform has a strong tradition of utility apps that add to or modify core OS functions, and when I looked up "essential mac utilities" today, I found recent listicles with items like Alt Tab (an app switcher), Magnet (window management shortcuts), and TinkerTool (change hidden system settings - exactly like emoji toggles for iPhone).
The iPhone was a big departure from that.
Hazehover is a new rising superstar. It darkens the unfocused app windows. So I guess it's a dark star ;)
I tried hazeover years ago and dropped it quite quickly. Something about the dimming caused visual confusion for me.
