How does one go about killing it in bash scripts? I had my script but pkill hyprsunset no longer work, “stop process” in the process monitor doesn’t do it either, only force kill process works.

pkill hyprsunset -9?

I read the bug report over on hyprsunset and it was indeed a regression, now fixed in 0.3.1. Release v0.3.1 · hyprwm/hyprsunset · GitHub
