From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is there any way on KDE, I can "click through" a partially transparent window to interact with the window behind it instead? [Solved but only for mpv] (programming.dev)

I want to like, block interaction with a window that I am keeping on top of other windows so I can see it but still click to stuff behind it.

It turns out mpv already has this implemented. https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/8949

Technically no windows or mac support (presumably it's possible there; dunno), but OP only asked for linux stuff so I'll close this

And then I could remove the title bar if I really don't want to interact with the app.

I wouldn't have thought so. You have only changed the appearance, it is still fully there.
