I managed to fully replace latte dock/panel with kde built in panels (top & bottom). Pretty happy about this, since latte is not supported anymore.
Go and look at the repo on the github or invent.kde.org . If you want
Latte Dock is still getting updates and it still works well. Only the lead dev left https://invent.kde.org/plasma/latte-dock

Is latte dock not dead?
There was an announcement from the original creator a year or so ago that they weren't going to work on it anymore. Looking on https://invent.kde.org/plasma/latte-dock it looks like there are some contributions over the last 4 months. Does anyone know for sure if there are new contributors? I was trying to decide whether to stay with latte or abandon for vanilla KDE panels. Depends on whether it's still being worked on.

Anyone else seeing Latte Dock icons disappearing sometimes on click after updating to Plasma 5.25? Also tried compiling the latest one from git but this is still reproducible.
When has it been abandoned? Genuine question, I was under the impression it was still very much active at https://invent.kde.org/plasma/latte-dock

I have developed an application launcher for KDE. Anyone interested?

I'm using Kubuntu, which is Ubuntu shipped with the KDE desktop environment. https://kubuntu.org/ Apart from that, I'm using Latte Dock as the dock on the bottom. https://github.com/KDE/latte-dock And obviously, the grid launcher is developed by myself: https://store.kde.org/p/1507169/ https://github.com/friciwolf/Rocket
