Hey @snakebite-382 I'm sorry about that, Compfy seems to react very violently on some systems in terms of memory and power usage. Due to Picom releasing v12 soon I don't see a point in further maintaining Compfy since animations will be implemented in upstream
What is the issue Turning on animations causes a 2-4 watt increase in power usage reported by powertop. Disabling animations drops compfy from being the highest power consumption (idle without running something power hungry like a game) to being fairly lightweight. Animations don't just make the stats worse they decrease the amount of battery life I actually get.
What I've tried
Relevant info Compfy version 1.7.2 installed with pacman
Neofetch for sysinfo:![neofetch](https://github.com/allusive-dev/compfy/assets/56897435/9f62eeef-0799-4c3c-8c26-acede47e351f)
