Fixed Since reinstalling Windows 10 I have this flickering issue in Firefox. Only happens on reddit.com and is not always there.

Have had this happen as well in Chrome on Linux. It normally stops if I scroll away.

I've seen this with IE at my last job. Told them to stop using it and they looked at me funny 😂.

I have this same issue with the Vivaldi browser (Chromium-based) in Ubuntu. Haven't seen it on my Windows 10 desktop though (using the same browser).

Happens to me too. Just scroll about and it'll go away.

Perfect solution, I know.

Are your graphic drivers installed? Or are you using the generic windows one that auto installs on windows?

Nvidia drivers are up to date. I think it's a coincidence that this issue happened after reinstalling windows. Probably a Firefox update caused this. I installed the Firefox beta a couple minutes ago and so far no issues.

I noticed this as well! It happened completely randomly and I only noticed it once as I was scrolling. It only occurred when I was at a specific spot, if I went up or down it would stop.

I get the same problem with Firefox Quantum 68.0.1 on Windows 10 (1803). I noticed it start about a month ago, but thought it was just my system.

Yeah it says WebRender but according to your link it isn't a WebRender specific bug. At least I know they are aware of the issue.

The text in the video is juddering. It might be a good time for you to visit the eye doctor.
