SUMMARY
Hi I'm sorry but I miss the legacy monitoring plotter options that came in 5.15.  Is there any way to import those into 5.20+? Otherwise I'm looking at remaking them from scratch.  I've got 40 threads on my main box and to see a single line graph with 40 threads on it is an unhelpful pile of spaghetti.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
Fedora 33/34
KDE Plasma Version:
5.20+

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Nothing broken just looking for legacy plasmoids.

No, sorry. Maybe you or someone else can or has added them to store.kde.org, but there are no plans to officially support the old thing.

If you're experiencing problems with the new thing, it's best to file bug reports describing the problem so that it problem can be fixed and you no longer feel the urge to go back to the old thing. :)

Can you attach a screenshot showing the problem?

Have posted screenshots in the forums here: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=170645

The closest I'm able to get to the classic display is with stacked line charts but with 40 cores it just looks like a mess and it's hard to see if/which cores are pegged at 100%.  I liked when each core had its own lane in the line chart and it helped you see when a process was bouncing between sockets for thermal load.

I've been spending some time getting familiar with the new systemmonitor library to see how I can make my own custom plasmoid from it but I might start from scratch using the old plotter.  Any tips or advice would be helpful, thanks.
