Picom

Compton still is in the repos and works but there is a new kid on the bloc, picom.
I have to be honest, no option was working for me on Xfce to disable screen tearing. When I try to append similar options like in compton it either has artifacts or I have the very thing I want to avoid, screen tearing in videos. Of course I use Intel so your mileage may vary.
If you are using Arch then you probably should say bye bye to compton because they prefer to ditch unmaintained programs.
You can find it in Testing/Unstable.
