# Transparency: kitty's own alpha, not the compositor's -- Hyprland fades a
# whole window (chrome included), kitty only makes the cell background
# translucent, so text stays fully opaque on top of it. This alpha is also what
# makes kitty the one window Hyprland blurs: hypr/looknfeel.lua enables blur
# globally and then opts every window out except the terminal classes, and an
# opaque window has no backdrop to blur. kitty's own `background_blur` does
# nothing here -- it rides ext-background-effect-v1, which Hyprland ignores
# while decoration:blur:enabled is false, and is redundant once it is true.

# change, and right before shutdown/reboot (kitty-day-save.service). `tv
