@karabaja4 you're right, I apologize

I was going to close this thread and give you the opportunity to start over; but I see that good information is beginning to come of this, so I will leave it for now. But, do read the CoC, especially the bit about respecting other FOSS projects. And, edit your first post and create a useful title that may help someone in the future. That last bit is not optional.

xwininfo is just for the alacritty window - either you missed the border or it's actually part of alacritty.
Then
use-ewmh-active-win = true;

Apparently I can make the border more transparent, but not fully opaque. It seems like it has a maximum value of transparency for some reason. Also inactive windows are still not transparent, even with use-ewmh-active-win = true.
Edit: I'm pretty sure I didn't miss the border, because I tried several times, so xwininfo output is most likely correct
Edit 2: I've found this issue on jonaburg's github page and it seems like the person was having the same problem. I'm not sure if this will work with yshui's picom, but I'll later try this solution and comment on the result.
