From Allusive: An Update on the Situation
Hello All. I just want to apologize first, some thing came up in my life and I became unable to continue looking after Compfy.
I know some people have had some concerns about my leaving and since it was so abrupt that maybe I left malware or something but I need to assure you this is not true.
As well I need to let all know this repository will be deleted along with my allusive-dev account most likely before the end of this month.
Again I'm sorry I couldn't keep this project alive, I wish i could have.
Signing off, Allusive
It is a shame that most of your hard work went to waste as it wouldn't be contributed back into picom for a better user experience, i wish you best of luck.

You can still try to upstream it. The code is still here.
Sorry, but it will be a very big burden on myself, as the code itself has been formatted:
$ git diff picom compfy | wc -l
22523
On-top of this, Compfy is starting fresh instead of forking from Picom HEAD, which makes git commits much harder to track down.
If only Compfy based on Picom, retaining the original contributor's hard work too, it would have been much easier to merge upstream, unfortunately that is not the case here. I was told by Allusive that they would do it eventually...
@apprehensions I'll consider forking from picom/next and adding the each of the features again in a different commit so it may hopefully be merged.
@apprehensions I've forked it and added the animations. I also tested and it is working fine. https://github.com/jasper-at-windswept/picom
Looks like yshui won't be adding anything from compfy, instead he will be using FT-Labs animations. Guess i did that for nothing lol https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/1121#issuecomment-1891010761
You could try submitting your work that is missing to FT-Labs fork
The only specific thing i can think of not in FT-Labs would be the custom corner rules and maybe some dwm patches i did.
Also i find it strange because i installed FT-Labs picom and there were not any animations so I'm not sure if i did something wrong or what is going on.
hi jasper, i hope youre doing well. its a pity you cant maintain compfy anymore :(
i just tried the ft-labs fork, i do have animations. but just like yshui picom, and every other fork i tried, theres still the issue that made me look for alternatives in the first place:
the closing animation works very unreliably, most of the time there is no animation. you fixed that in compfy / picom-allusive. it would be great if that improvement could find its way into picom somehow!

Once FT-Labs merges with Picom I'll look into making a pull request to fix the issue if it is still present then!

Just wanted to warn everyone that I believe my @allusive-dev account will be deleted within the next week or so along with the Compfy repository.
For anymore future discussions about Compfy or similar we can talk in the Discussions tab for https://github.com/jasper-at-windswept/picom
@allusive-dev Are you alright? Sucks to see you go, was good knowing you! Good luck on whatever life brings
+1, I'm also concerned since you basically deleted your github and discord account at the same time without a word so wondering if you're alright aswell @jasper-at-windswept

Hey Arch, To explain it in the best way I can, I had been planning to get rid of discord for a while already because I don't like it, and I got rid of GitHub because I also don't like Microsoft. The reason I have made another account is because I found out I have to have it for my upcoming work. I'm also not great at goodbyes, sorry. Hope I cleared it up.

Haha, my name doesn't have arch in it but I guess we know that it's really you now
As for your explanation, that sounds reasonable and thanks for the explanation. That definitely is better than what I thought was happeneing. Anyway, I wish the best for you!
Oh and also, come and say hi every once in a while, the server has a matrix and revolt bridge :)
@ardishco-the-great What is the matrix server address?

Uh so, apparently GitHub never even deleted my account to any extent...
