spicetify-themes VS picom

- Spicetify for the custom spotify theme, I am using a modified version of the 'Dreary' theme. Theme is a bit broken atm and not being maintained, so I had to fix some bugs in the .css files, will try to push my changes to the Spicetify Themes GitHub repo when I find the time.

I've been using Spicetify and custom themes cause of the recent UI changes.

hello i am using the Sleek theme from marketplace

This is the purple colour scheme from the Dribbblish theme. It can be found in the spicetify-themes repo. https://github.com/spicetify/spicetify-themes/tree/master/Dribbblish

themes are ran through this page https://github.com/spicetify/spicetify-themes

Once you've installed it you can apply a bunch of community themes (by installing them from here https://github.com/spicetify/spicetify-themes). Mine is "Sleek Cherry"

Use spicetify and apply Fluent theme. Here is a link : https://github.com/morpheusthewhite/spicetify-themes/tree/master/Fluent

picom is a widely adopted compositor that has (too) many forks and the one I use supports blurring, shadows, corners and transparency: https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom

I tried that fork as well. Had the same issues, went on to ibhagwan/picom fork which worked out great for me as you can see.. including fading animations atc if yr in to that.

I have picom-ibhagwan (https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom) installed via the xbps template for the rounded corners and dual kawase bliur. Everything was fine until I rebooted- and now I have no blur or rounded corners. I have no clue what gives. Any ideas?

git clone https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom cd picom meson --buildtype=release . build ninja -C build sudo ninja -C build install

I read in this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/i3wm/comments/p5o61d/picom_rounded_corner_blur/ that https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom has rounded corners + blur

I guess newer versions of picom supports the blur effect. I'm not sure though. Just a note you don't need to terminate the session for testing this. Just kill the running instance of picom and run picom again. This is how I run picom: picom --experimental-backends --backend glx --xrender-sync-fence and this is what I have for blur effects in my picom.conf file: blur: { # requires: https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom method = "kawase"; #method = "kernel"; strength = 17; deviation = 14; kernel = "11x11gaussian"; background = true; background-frame = true; background-fixed = true; kern = "3x3box"; }

Thank's, I create issue with a lot of info. I thinks problems like that is the often situation on nvidia gpu... https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom/issues/50
