Do you use a non-tiling window manager like IceWM or blackbox? I use a patched version of motif window manager and it works really well.

Have you tried sfwbar as a tint2 replacement? It’s rather cool and very customizable.
The sfwbar screenshots did not appeal to me, so I never tried it out. If it’s sufficiently customizeable then it’s worth a shot, I guess.
One of the big issues that I have with all the Wayland panels is that they seem designed for tiling compositors like Sway. More like status bars than task bars. The Windows-style list of open programs is not really necessary for a tiling workflow and this is painfully reflected in the available options. I have bashed Waybar into a decent facsimile of my tint2 config visually, but the actual window list module is just awful.
sfwbar can do pretty much anything, from statusbar to windows like taskbar. It was a bit of a hazzle to set up but the possibilities are there. It comes with some different setups/themes to get you started. Try it out. My favorite when fiddling around with wayland was yambar, but it’s more of a statusbar.
