Since the latest updates, transparency stopped working on my machine.

My GPU is an AMD RX470 with open drivers.

Just in case your issue is the same that I recently had: a recent Plasma update might have reset your Plasma theme to vanilla Breeze. If you were using a community Breeze variant with enhanced transparency, it's possible that you didn't notice that the theme was changed because it looks mostly the same, except for enhanced transparency.

Ok it works again. Seems plasma auto disabled it because of a crash.

It happened without me being notified, or I did not notice the notification.
