How do you get rounded corners like this in XFCE?
Rounded corners for the whole window - you can apply a patch providing rounded corners to xfwm. More details here: https://github.com/wsdfhjxc/xfce-patches. There is no antialiasing available here either, but you can configure the radius and some other things.

Also I took a census and zero founding members of NWA are "straight outta Picom". That's right, you heard it here first: Not even MC Ren is running Picom.

FPS drops when scrolling in monocle layout with Picom
Update: after reporting in picom GitHub repo this is temporarily solved by using --no-frame-pacing. Looks like a recent commit causes this. You can view the discussion here: https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/1072

[dwm] Beginning on linux desktop, first ricing
Compositor : picom
-
In Picom with the rounded-corners setting how do you apply alpha to the menu list?
It looks like this was identified and the repo corrected in Jan (https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/808) but the NixOS package has not been updated since Nov.

I have two Linux computers which I use for gaming.... somehow the one with slightly inferior hardware gets significantly better performance. I'm trying to figure out why... any ideas?
If you have compositing you are likely using picom. You can check if it's running with ps -A | grep picom. I've never dealt with this issue as I don't really game on linux often, but I'm sure there's a solution somewhere in the github docs or issues. Worst case scenario you could always just kill the process with killall picom whenever you're about to game, and re-enable it with picom -b after. Do note though that currently running windows might bug out a bit when you kill/start the compositor.
