I have been trying to get blur on Emacs. So far, I've been able to make it some what transparent. But, Hyprland doesn't blur it. I've been trying to do it myself so far, numerous ChatGPT conversations, and a whole lot more. But I haven't been able to get blur working.

Hyprland is able to blur, Ex: Alacritty is blurred when opacity is set to somehing less than 1

Just that Emacs don't work

Thought about emacs-pgtk-igc-git but I have a low-end system. Compilation might just take too long.
I have tried it though, but errors out in build. Will provide a log of emacs-pgtk if required

Here's a screenshot.

I'm using end_4's dots.
