Please note, that there also might be eyesight problems: in case that the blue
and the grey line are too similar in brightness and the line width too small.
In my experience, it a thin light blue  (like the default in "breeze") line is
very similar to a thin gray line. Instead, there could be some difference in
shape, e.g. some kind of glow effect or bold text or pressed button effect for
the active window. Or another color instead of light blue, e.g. orange, which
contrasts better to a gray.

Considering how long this issue is open until now, and that some people -
including me - consider this an accessibility issue, what about:
1. Disable the minimized effect right now to get the issue fixed.
2. Meanwhile think about better ways to show minimized windows without
impairing accessibility
or make it an advanced user configurable setting which is off by default.
