How can i make bg layer MATTER?

[enessmr]

Hyprland version

Hyprland 0.49.0 built from branch main at commit 54ccf9c (renderer: make lock fail textures dynamically loaded).

Regression

Kind of yea. I think this is related to hyprland config

Describe the question

So i recently (2/1w ago) started making my dotfiles. I still use the koeqaife hyprland config due to my hyprland folder being partially done

Reproduction steps

1. start a fresh config

thats it
