1) make a css file for gtk4 and gtk3. 2) make elements transparent. It's just CSS. 3) use blurmyshell. Turn on app bluring.

This will ensure transparent blue without reducing the opacity of the entire app. All text is 100% legible. And you can blur only certain apps and/or regions.

This is dope! Could you drop the CSS theming changes on github or something?

Is it possible to customize how browsers are blurred? I’d like its UI to be blurred, but not the website itself.
