Unfortunately picoms as buggy as hell so I ended up just removing shadows.
But thank you!

picom can be challenging. I am using aur/picom-tryone-git currently.

I’m really wondering why it’s not in main repo by now, it’s extremely popular fork

Same I know this going slighty off-topic but do you what I need to write to exclude plank from kawasw blur?
blur: {
method = "kawase";
strength = 10;
background = false;
background-frame = false;
background-fixed = false;
}
blur-exclude = [
"name = 'Plank'",
];
This isn’t working for some reason.

What returns when you type picom in a terminal? Did you use the parameter --enable experimental-backends -f? I am an i3 user so i am not sure where you would apply this in openbox. It is set in the i3 .config.
#transparency
#exec --no-startup-id xcompmgr -c
exec --no-startup-id picom --experimental-backends -f
Give me a second I think I know where it is…Yup found it in picom.conf

this bit here…

It’s been forever since I posted a screenshot. Still using XFCE and have put together a dark theme I like.

OK - like HOW did you put it together?? 
no neofetch showing, even…
This is my XFCE “light” mod. XFCE panel is uninstalled and replaced by Tint2. The menu is only accessible with a right click on the desktop (like Openbox). GTK theme is “Stylish.” Window border is “City XFCE” with the colors modified to better match the GTK theme. Not shown is a j4-dmenu borrowed from a most i3 wm installs.

This Plasma theme (hello-kde-git) is amazing, you can change the colours of the title bar and the buttons!
