thank you for reply! Unfortunately, that plasmoid does not work on kubuntu 22.04 (https://github.com/alexankitty/FancyTasks/issues/18)

You might be interested in Fancy Tasks.

I use FancyTasks

Fancy Tasks has options to disable indicators and stuff. Give that a try.

This is pretty nice! IMO, this is a huge usability upgrade, as I can clearly tell at first-glance that a window is minimized or don't have focus. On the default task manager, a window's state is hard to tell apart. The indicators are a great add, something to fill the gap that Latte's Tasks left. What I would suggest, is probably link the animation speed with Plasma's Global speed (unless OG Task Manager doesn't do that...). Also, maybe brighten the indicator a bit more against the Task Manager's buttons, as grouped window indicators are difficult to see (even when the buttons and indicators use the 'dominant color feature). Maybe this effect would help: https://github.com/alexankitty/FancyTasks/issues/9 , but I think there was a discussion in the VDG about implementing this in Plasma's task manager.

You can get the project here if you want to use it yourself: https://github.com/alexankitty/FancyTasks
