- Accidentally messed up Compton configuration on MX Linux

I did the "Linux breaths new life to old machines" thing
Yeah you need to use a separate compositor along with it, like picom/compton.

Screen glitches out when opening the terminal
The last update to compton was on April 30th 2017 (see https://github.com/chjj/compton).

About gaming and latency on Wayland
Or we refer to different things. With "compositor" i mean this, like this. I do have noticed that some Wayland developers like to use "compositor" to mean the window system implementation itself (and then retrofitting the term on Xorg) but while in some way it might be valid with Wayland - since that assumes composition always happen - it is not correct for X.

graphics problem where blocks of windows disappear. compositing?

Ok then. Are you sure that you aren't hitting this issue: https://github.com/chjj/compton/issues/402 ?

Terminal emulator that can blur the background ?
This will depend on the compositor you choose to use. For DIY desktop environments based on X11, you can use Compton to set blur on translucent windows.

my copy of Len'en 4 became fast all of a sudden
This is a bit of a wild guess, but if you happen to be on Linux, you might be able to use libstrangle to throttle the framerate like so: strangle 60 wine Le04.exe.

I have no other os to test it. AMD Adrenalin should work on Linux too and people with NVidia GPU can use libstrangle.

check out libstrangle at https://gitlab.com/torkel104/libstrangle and it has and it also has a section that explains v-sync

PSA: Enabling the Framerate Limiter adds substantial input latency (timings inside)
I play Elden Ring at 25 fps / 50 Hz and am prolly too old to see any difference. I had a look at the old libstrangle I used on Linux: https://gitlab.com/torkel104/libstrangle/-/blob/master/src/limiter.c

Limit Frame Rate: Mangohud vs In Game
There's technically also libstrangle but it can be hit and miss depending on the setup. I used that to cheat and slow down the final airhockey game in Beyond Good and Evil and it did the job lol.
