I usually add more transparency haha. Transparency settings affecting Dolphin 
should be in settings > application style > pencil icon. Other parts of the UI 
such as window decorations or plasma style may also need to be changed to 
completely get rid of any transparency.

But yea, I wanted to use Wayland also, but I'm finding it buggy even with an 
AMD GPU, and then it's hard to find a text expansion package that works with 
it.

Interesting, I haven't had any problems so far, but I'll keep an eye out.
