Move or Remove Task Status Change Popup

Whenever the user changes the status of a task, the popup notifying the user of the status change completely blocks the other tasks. It makes no sense to have the popup appear in its current location, if at all

Please move the pop-up to another part of the screen or skip it altogether. Here is a screenshot of the issue. Popup in lower left blocks the rest of the subtasks. I want to just click them off down the list, but I have to click the X every time to close the box. If it was just on the other side of the screen, it would avoid much frustration.

Improvement of Status Change Popup UX
Dear ClickUp team,
While working with task views, I’ve encountered a recurring UX issue related to the status change confirmation popup. Based on this, I’d like to suggest the following feature improvements:
🧩 Feature Request 1: Allow repositioning of the confirmation popup
Current behavior: The "Task status updated" popup appears in the bottom-left corner of the screen.
Issue: It frequently overlaps with tasks or action buttons, making it hard to interact with items located in that area.
Request: Add an option in the settings to change the location of this popup (e.g., top-right, center-top, or floating location).
🧼 Feature Request 2: Add a "minimal mode" or auto-dismiss timing control
Current behavior: The popup remains visible for several seconds, even when it blocks interactions.
Request: Allow users to customize how long the popup stays visible or enable a "minimal mode" where it appears less intrusively.
🔄 Feature Request 3: Allow drag-and-drop repositioning or floating behavior
Request: Make the popup draggable by the user, or enable it to auto-adjust to avoid overlapping with task elements.
Thank you for considering these suggestions! These changes would help improve the overall user experience when managing tasks efficiently.
Best regards,
Julien

There should also be an option to either hide this popup or move it to the background, as it often happens that when performing actions on multiple tasks, these popups stack on top of each other. This ends up overlapping with other operations, such as changing the status of a task.
