Ubuntu – disable global app menu in Ubuntu 19.04

19.04appmenugnomegnome-shell

In Ubuntu 18.x, the global app menu could be disabled with this command:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings overrides '@a{sv} {"Gtk/ShellShowsAppMenu":<0>}'

Or, using gnome-tweaks, I would turn it off by clicking on Top Bar -> Application Menu.

However, neither of these seems to work anymore in Ubuntu 19.04. What is the new correct way to disable the global app menu?


Edit:
Note that I cannot use the hamburger menu as not every application has one of those. For example, on my desktop I have Terminator and KDevelop running, neither of which have a hamburger menu. The global menu at the top of the screen (not attached to the window) has options specific to those applications:

How would I disable this global menu and bring whatever menu options are provided down to the application's window instead?

I started using the Hide App Icon extension. It works perfectly and you can choose to hide the app icon, the window title, and the dropdown arrow independently.
