Minimize(d) windows: list, open from list, open all
In addition, I'd need to check what exactly I am should be using for xmonad-extras, since I use a patched BinarySpacePartition, by Samuli Thomasson, that allows it to work just fine with Minimize (see email exchange in xmonad list: https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/xmonad/2021-May/015432.html). Maybe this patch is now in https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-extras, but I'd need to check.

Help installing taffybar
Now I'm getting a couple of actual build errors, which are on taffybars end (the issue on github: https://github.com/taffybar/taffybar/issues/542 if anyone would like to fix it :P). I'll try installing the project from source instead and see where that takes me.

Anyone here using Taffybar?
You likely need to copy over the config file if you didn't do that already. Check the bottom of the github page. https://github.com/taffybar/taffybar
