## Blur effect
This fork leverages picom's new kawase blur method instead of taking a screenshot, blur it using ImageMagick without hardware acceleration and then set it as the lock screen wallpaper.
The end result is much higher performance and much lower latency.
Currently, you will need to enable the experimental backend in picom using `picom --experimental-backends`, you can check out my picom config [here](https://github.com/khuedoan/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/picom/picom.conf#L29).
