Both have one-time/lifetime purchase options. Taskbar is $25 one-time with a free but expiring older version. ActiveDock's one-time prices are $15 (1 year of updates, but usable forever) and $60 (lifetime updates).
Thank you for mentioning my app (https://lawand.io/taskbar/). It's been around for a couple of years and it's considered the best alternative to uBar according to the extremely positive reviews by my users
https://lawand.io/taskbar/ as well
and https://noteifyapp.com/activedock/, which is less extreme but has a start menu-like launcher option

Another alternative is https://hypercritical.co/switchglass/ ($10 upfront) really well done.
uBar looks amazing as well, and it’s not a subscription, I really like boringBar but can’t justify a subscription tho
Both are under 10MB, So I don't think there would be much difference.
I meant more in terms of featureset. uBar has a lot of features and it takes a while to get a setup that works well.
Once it's set up, though, it's pretty rock solid.
