Other apps are available, but nothing I've seen seems to do what you or I want apart from that hugely complex rollback-the-OS method detailed elsewhere you mention. NOTE: I'm not the dev of CDock and have no idea who that is, just like and use the app. I'll attach a pic of my dock - I like a simple consistent minimal set of basic icons and enjoy designing 'em anyway. A bit extreme but, like you, I don't like the defaults. I saved those as Automater files and they mask the other ones. I managed to customize my app and utility directories in the dock by using the 'view as a stack thing', designing a slightly bigger icon (as the front one is shrunk in the dock in that view) and then putting a second darker smaller one behind it to cover any protuding bits of other icons. It's a little buggy, but I have even managed to replace my finder icon (which keeps reverting back to the original, and seemingly random resets and clearing of icon caches somehow gets it back)įull marks to the dev for keeping this going, despite Apple's seeming desire to shut out all customization stuff. This only works in your dock or Finder, not in the list of apps when you click on the app folder.
It also allows you to designate a PNG to replace any icon running as a layer over the usual stuff, and replace the trash icons and empty trash noise (the last one is a bit random but hey, the more options, the merrier). It comes up against the locked OS drive thing like other such apps, so you need to disable SIPs to run it (insert mandatory warning about your system will be overrun by Russian murder hornets if you do such a thing sigh)
Not system icons, though, not out of the box. You can get 99% of the way there with a paid-for app called CDock (CDock4 is the newest, works on Big Sur) that allows you to change icons, dock backgrounds, shadows, dock positions etc.
