x11-emoji-picker VS picom

I originally made x11-emoji-picker which uses xdotool instead but wanted something which would work on Wayland systems aswell (among other reasons such as xdotool not always working).

Download a package from here that matches your Pop!_OS version

I want to merge the code for Emote and x11-emoji-picker into the main source, but couldn't find it.

I want to merge the code for [Emote](https://github.com/tom-james-watson/Emote) and [X-11-emoji-picker](https://github.com/GaZaTu/x11-emoji-picker) into the main source, but couldn't find it.

Emoji: Windows 10 has the most robust emoji picker there is. It opens with meta+. similar to plasma but that's where the similarity ends. Windows emoji picker doesn't copy paste emoji, it writes to the open window. User can input as many emoji as they like without pressing ctrl+v every time. I have tried many alternatives, Emote, rofimoji,x11-emoji-picker. Among those x11-emoji-picker is closest to windows but has a lot of bugs. I have had system freeze🥶🥶, no keyboard shortcut not working, frame drops🥴🥴🥴.

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
