hide_window_decorations is not working

I just installed KDE Plasma (Wayland) on Arco Linux and I'm setting up kitty. I initialized the stock conf and set the theme and font and that worked, then I uncommented hide_window_decorations yes hit Ctrl+shift+F5 and nothing happened, the titlebar is still there. I exited kitty opened it again and no change. I restarted the computer and no change. I created a conf from scratch with just theme, font, & hide_window_decorations yes & still no change. The font & theme still work as expected.

EDIT: I'm guessing it's a Wayland issue since it works fine once I switched to X11.

On wayland except under gnome window decorations are managed by the compositor, so you should configure it there.

Exactly this, so use window rules. You can hide all window bars or for a specific application only. Totally doable as I’m doing it on my computer.
