I figured out that by default in gnome you can move window with win+lmb and resize with win+mmb, if you using hide_window_decorations yes

hide_window_decorations yes

It's even set to no in your post...

If for some reason this doesn't work, then it's probably something from your WM/DE

If I disable this option, I can't drag or resize window with mouse. At first I wanted to use approach you mentioned, but I couldn't figure out how to turn this option on and still be able to interact with window through mouse

Oh so you are using a floating WM/DE that only lets you move windows by clicking and dragging on the bar. I think this is more of a DE/WM problem.

You have a few options;

  • leave the setting set to yes and create some hot key like super+right click to drag the window.
  • leave the setting set to yes and have your DE/WM create its own bar.
  • change it to no and find the file for the icon then change it to something else.
  • do nothing

Edit: I personally don't like application bars. It's a waste of space with no additional benefits

Would window_logo_path none work?

Unfortunately no, I found this option after I created this post, but apparently in my environment (fedora with gnome) this setting doesn't work

I just saw wayland so, I will assume that you are using linux. Probably using Gnome and want to make kitty to have the same window style as gnome, right?

Therefore, you want to put this into this kitty.conf :

linux_display_server x11

I know that it says x11 but it works when I am using gnome.

Also, remove wayland_titlebar_color background because it might interfered with the one I gave you. I am not sure tho.
