kitty has a blur that is normally set in the conf file with background_blur 1 but thats not there and its a custom file by garuda so i checked the config they tossed in at the bottom line but didnt see it there either and adding background_blur 0 to the conf gets overridden…
i just dont know where the custom configs are that garuda is trying to use

Please, post garuda-inxi.
Where did you edit and which file, please write full names.
There will never be changed files by system in /home until you change it or use an app like garuda-assistant.
Did you save your changes?

I believe just setting background_opacity can cause this bug. I have bisected to find a potential spot for the bug, bisect log:

i checked out ~/.config/kitty/current-theme.conf and ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf

Shouldn’t you be looking at a compositor, say picom?
blur-background-exclude = [
#"window_type = 'dock'",
#"window_type = 'desktop'",
#"class_g = 'URxvt'",
"class_g = 'slop'",
"class_g = 'i3status'",
"_GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS@:c",
"window_type = 'menu'",
"window_type = 'tooltip'",
"window_type = 'popup_menu'",
"window_type = 'dropdown_menu'",
"window_type = 'dock'",
"window_type = 'desktop'"
];
and probably add something here - to exclude kitty. Not 100 percent sure about Kitty

Maybe I don’t understand, do you want blur or not?
Maybe look also in i3 config, I have no blur in my i3wm.
twas a picom thing! i just added
"class_g = 'kitty'",
to /home/$USER/.config/picom.conf
