Ana Tudor 🐯<p>To fix this, we give the assembly a tiny blur.</p><p>We don't want blurry edges👇 either, so we push some of the semitransparent edge pixels to either 0 or 1, whichever is closer. To do so, we use another `feComponentTransfer` and map the [0, 1] alpha interval to [-2, 3]. Basically we're stretching the alpha interval to be 5 times bigger, keeping same midpoint (.5), then it's clamped to [0, 1].</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SVG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SVG</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/filter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>filter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CSS</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cssFilter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cssFilter</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/cssBlur" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cssBlur</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/coding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>coding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>web</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/webDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>webDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/webDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>webDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/code" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>code</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/frontend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>frontend</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/svgFilter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>svgFilter</span></a></p>

Ana Tudor 🐯<p>As you can see in the recording 👆 blurring makes the pixels around the edges semitransparent. The bigger the blur radius, the more pixels become transparent.</p><p>When the particles get closer, their semitransparent areas overlap.
