I use dwm as my standalone window manager and picom for compositing.
I want to disable the little fade-in and fade-out animation each time I open/close a window.
I think its a feature of picom, but found nothing in the config.
Its probably a really noob question but i found nothing really clear on google.
Anyone got a little hint?

picom doesn't fade windows in and out unless you've explicitly enabled it. Please post your config and your xinitrc (or other file that starts picom).

Did you try setting the "no-fading-openclose" option?
--no-fading-openclose
Do not fade on window open/close.

picom has dedicated options for general and open/close fading, no need to cheat the calculation and hope to get properly clamped.
