Better Blur DX is a loose continuation of Better Blur - a fork of the Plasma 6 blur effect with additional features and bug fixes.

As mentioned in #59074, kwin-effects-forceblur fails to build for KWin 6.6. Since the project has been archived for quite a while, it'd be better to migrate to a regularly maintained fork.
