Options for tasks sidebar layout

It is very difficult to visually navigate through the tasks sidebar because it all kind of runs together. It’s hard to quickly see where the lists are, where the main tasks are, and where the subtasks are, especially when lists are unrolled. A couple options that would be helpful:

  • More design options for task list name appearance so they’re easier to pick out (in order of preference)

    • A background color for the task list (this would clear up the problem almost entirely)

    • Filled circles instead of just outlined

    • Options for different icons beyond just circles (like the inbox one)

  • Ability to add dividers to sidebar (for example, to differentiate between all of my work tasks and my personal tasks)

    After seeing other similar posts, I’d add one more option that would help: An “expand/contract all lists” option to easily hide all tasks/subtasks and only open what I need. As other people have mentioned, my task list can feel overwhelming, especially in the sidebar. I know there are filtering options but these are small tweaks that would make the UX much more visually appealing
