I'm using Nightly (Version 82.0a1 (2020-08-25) (64-bit)) and recently the browser has started flickering. It doesn't come from the add-ons and I tried a full reset without any improvement. The weird thing is that starting in safe mode doesn't seem to suffer from that flickering issue but since I did a full reset it shouldn't be so different ? Anyway, do you have any solution for me ?

Thx.

Looks like a GPU/Webrender issue. Examine your Graphics section on the about:support page.

Hey, all my drivers are up-to-date. My GPU is rather old: GTX970 but it doesn't do that with anything else and it only appeared recently on Nightly. I might have to change browser if this continues :/

May be a bug on Nightly (it happens). But can you post your Graphics section on pastebin.com?
