I made a terminal utility to monitor some system stats. Was wondering if you guys know of anything better or if I should continue dev work on it since we need it?
The most similar one I've used is ytop. You might be able to draw some inspiration from there.

HTOP is a great improvement of top, which I use everywhere, from DEV servers to my own laptop. I know it's not as modern as YTOP but I got used to it and can't get to change.

Picom blur background isn't working, help!
What distro? My pref is for Jonaburg's fork. Ibhagwan is out of date. Pijulius more so. Yshui doesn't have animation.

Does awesome dont support Translucent windows?
As others have said, Awesome doesn't ship with a compositor so you need one yourself. My choice is jonaburg's picom fork for the extra included features, but regular picom will do the job.

Best picom fork?
picom-jonaburg has rounded corners and animations. Window gaps are controlled by your window manager, compositors can't interact with them.

Can't remove rounded corners from evince
Offtopic: I know you didn't ask this, but I just saw the fork you are using was updated the last time in 2020: https://github.com/jonaburg/picom/tags . The current version of the original https://github.com/yshui/picom/releases got updated this year (2 years more development!). Unless you are using features that is only available in that fork, I would try the mainline, which also got some of these features too, in example support for rounding corners. So maybe this newer version works better.

I am using Qtile (on a Laptop running Ubuntu 20.04), with jonaburg-picom, which is blurring my Qtile bar since some parts of it are configured to be transparent. How do I get rid of that blur, can someone help me with this?
