Summary

When using the "hide" window hiding behavior, switching to another workspace correctly makes the windows disappear, but when coming back to the workspace, the windows do not reappear and stay hidden.

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1ee8bde0-3075-47bf-a071-b9e2b22a95f9

^^ The VS Code window does not reappear when I switch back to the 3rd workspace (it happens for all Windows, not just VS Code)

I think this is more of a documentation nit to mark "Hide" as EOL - there are too many issues with this approach and it isn't being developed further - "Cloak" is now the default (this is also what Virtual Desktops uses) and what all users are encouraged to use

Oh okay. In that case is there a way to show only programs from the current workspace in the taskbar? My issue with cloak is that the windows are hidden visually, but my taskbar is cluttered because it' always showing windows from all workspaces.

Curiosity is getting the better of me so I'm trying to bisect to find exactly which commit broke this, because the Hide behaviour has not really been touched for years now

The last version where Hide works as expected is 0.1.33
