    Development stopped by upstream. Switch to its actively developed fork, x11-misc/picom.

    me dumb.

    i had to go all over the interwebs to get told by
    someone in another continent that the answer is
    already written right in the next line in my very
    same terminal.

    Why not? It's a dead project that was forked as x11-misc/picom (aka
    same codebase except it has an active upstream).

    Compton itself was also a fork, there's long history of such and it's
    better to just move on.
