Help with BSPWM

So, I've just reinstalled Arch Linux with bspwm but every time I open a list (like dropdown menus, right-click in a browser) it shows a white (or black) background instead of the regular, expected transparent one, can anyone help?
Also, I've noticed it only happens within GTK apps, QT works just fine.

Some images of what happens:

(those are from Brave, but it also happens on PavuControl)

Re: Help with BSPWM

try running a compositor like picom.
Just picom &, and add it to your bspwrc if it works
