I'm using Arch, what is the command that I should run if I want alacritty to always stay on top, thanks

See the example in the readme. Assuming wmctrl works for your window manager, you can used the -P flag or maybe the -C flag: tdrop -P 'wmctrl -i -r $wid -b add,above'....

THANKS I got the behavior I want, how do I get the behavior like in instantOS terminal ( or the terminal in the gif that opens up in the center with border ), system info : the operating system I'm on is Opensuse Tumbleweed with KDE as window manager and krohnkite extension for kwin

I'm not familiar with the instantOS terminal. Can you more specifically describe the behavior you want and what tdrop command you tried?

in the middle of the screen like in the gif used for this repo

I'm not sure what you want. The dropdown is at the top in the gifs, and I believe the gifs are just using the default geometry settings.

I meant the middle of the screen like a centered box apparently in the gif that happened just when the terminal was loading

If you use percentages, you can center. Something like tdrop -y 25% -h 50% <terminal>
